Individual plant parts directly contribute to yield based on their number, size and/or weight, or the actual yield is the yield per square meter for a crop and year, which is determined by dividing total production (includes both harvested and appraised production) by planted square meters.

  • "Early vigour” refers to active healthy well-balanced growth especially during early stages of plant growth, and may result from increased plant fitness due to, for example, the plants being better adapted to their environment (i.e. optimizing the use of energy resources and partitioning between shoot and root). Plants having early vigour also show increased seedling survival and a better establishment of the crop, which often results in highly uniform fields (with the crop growing in uniform manner, i.e. with the majority of plants reaching the various stages of development at substantially the same time), and often better and higher yield. Therefore, early vigour may be determined by measuring various factors, such as thousand kernel weight, percentage germination, percentage emergence, seedling growth, seedling height, root length, root and shoot biomass and many more.

  • the beneficial effect of the present invention may mani- fest itself not in the seed yield per se, but in the seed quality and the quality of the agricultural products produced from the plants treated according to the invention.
  • Seed quality may relate to different parameters known in the art, such as enhanced nutrient or fine chemical content, e.g. amounts of vitamins or fatty acids and their composition; colouring or shape of the seed; germination rate or seed vigour; or reduced amounts of toxins, e.g. fungal toxins, and/or of substances hard to digest or indigestible, e.g. phy- tate, lignin.
  • the "greenness index” as used herein is calculated from digital images of plants. For each pixel belonging to the plant object on the image, the ratio of the green value versus the red value (in the RGB model for encoding colour) is calculated. The greenness index is expressed as the percentage of pixels for which the green-to-red ratio exceeds a given threshold. Under normal growth conditions, under salt stress growth conditions, and under reduced nutrient availability growth conditions, the greenness index of plants is measured in the last imaging before flowering. In contrast, under drought stress growth conditions, the greenness index of plants is measured in the first imaging after drought. Similarly the measurements may be done after exposure to other abiotic stress treatments, e.g. temperature.
  • Biotic stress is caused by living or- ganisms while abiotic stress is caused for example by environmental extremes or con- d i t i o n s u n f a v o u r a b l e f o r a n o p t i m a l g r o w t h o f t h e p l a n t .
  • “enhanced tolerance or resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress factors” means (1.) that certain negative factors caused by biotic and/or abiotic stress are diminished in a measurable or noticeable amount as compared to control plants exposed to the same conditions, and (2.) that the negative effects are not diminished by a direct action of the composition on the stress factors, for example by its fungicidal or insecticidal action which directly destroys the microorganisms or pests, but rather by a stimulation of the plants' own defensive reactions ("priming") against said stress factors ("induced resistance”) or by the above mentioned syn- e r g i s t i c e f f e c .
  • Biotic stress can be caused by living organisms, such as pests (for example insects, arachnides, nematodes), competing plants (for example weeds), microorganisms (such as phythopathogenic fungi and/or bacteria) and/or viruses.
  • Abiotic stress can be caused for example by extremes in temperature such as heat or cold (heat stress, cold stress), strong variations in temperature, temperatures unusual for the specific season, drought (drought stress), extreme wetness, high salinity (salt stress), radiation (for example by increased UV radiation due to the decreasing ozone layer), increased ozone levels (ozone stress), organic pollution (for example by phythotoxic amounts of pesticides) and inorganic pollution (for example by heavy metal contaminants).

  • the above identified indicators for the health condition of a plant may be interdependent and may result from each other. For example, an increased resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress may lead to a better plant vigor, e.g. to better and bigger crops, and thus to an increased yield. Inversely, a more developed root system may result in an increased resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress.
  • these inter- dependencies and interactions are neither all known nor fully understood.
  • plant yield is increased by increasing the environmental stress tolerance(s) of a plant, in particular the tolerance to abiotic stress.
  • the term “increased tolerance to stress” can be defined as survival of plants, and/or higher yield production, under stress conditions as compared to a control plant:
  • the plant of the invention is better adapted to the stress conditions.
  • "Improved adaptation" to environmental stress like e.g. drought, heat, nutrient depletion, freezing and/or chilling temperatures refers herein to an improved plant performance resulting in an increased yield, particularly with regard to one or more of the yield related traits as defined in more detail above.
  • stress condition a condition where biotic stress may be divided into biotic and abiotic (environmental) stresses. Unfavourable nutrient conditions are sometimes also referred to as “environ- mental stress”.

  • abiotic stress tolerance(s) refers for example low temperature tol- erance, drought tolerance or improved water use efficiency (WUE), heat tolerance, salt stress tolerance and others.
  • Stress tolerance in plants like low temperature, drought, heat and salt stress tolerance can have a common theme important for plant growth, namely the availability of water. Plants are typically exposed during their life cycle to conditions of reduced environmental water content. The protection strategies are simi- lar to those of chilling tolerance.
  • said yield-related trait relates to an increased water use efficiency of the plant of the invention and/ or an increased tolerance to drought conditions of the plant of the invention.
  • Water use efficiency is a parameter often correlated with drought tolerance. An increase in biomass at low water availability may be due to relatively improved efficiency of growth or reduced water consumption.
  • a decrease in water use, without a change in growth would have particular merit in an irrigated agricultural system where the water input costs were high.
  • An increase in growth without a corresponding jump in water use would have applicability to all agricultural systems.
  • an increase in growth, even if it came at the expense of an increase in water use also increases yield.
  • an increased plant yield is mediated by increasing the "nutrient use efficiency of a plant", e.g. by improving the nutrient use efficiency of nutrients including, but not limited to, phosphorus, potassium, and nitrogen.
  • An increased nutrient use efficiency is in one embodiment an enhanced nitro- gen uptake, assimilation, accumulation or utilization. These complex processes are associated with absorption, translocation, assimilation, and redistribution of nitrogen in the plant.

  • Rice transformation [1.1.37.646] The Agrobacterium containing the expression vector is used to transform Oryza sativa plants. Mature dry seeds of the rice japonica cultivar Nipponbare are de- husked. Sterilization is carried out by incubating for one minute in 70% ethanol, followed by 30 minutes in 0.2% HgCb, followed by a 6 times 15 minutes ish with sterile distilled water. The sterile seeds are then germinated on a medium containing 2,4-D (callus induction medium). After incubation in the dark for four weeks, embryogenic, scutellum-derived calli are excised and propagated on the same medium. After two weeks, the calli are multiplied or propagated by subculture on the same medium for another 2 weeks. Embryogenic callus pieces are sub-cultured on fresh medium 3 days before co-cultivation (to boost cell division activity).
  • Agrobacterium strain LBA4404 containing the expression vector is used for co-cultivation.
  • Agrobacterium is inoculated on AB medium with the appropriate antibiotics and cultured for 3 days at 28°C.
  • the bacteria are then collected and suspended in liquid co-cultivation medium to a density (OD ⁇ oo) of about 1.
  • the suspension is then transferred to a Petri dish and the calli immersed in the suspension for 15 minutes.
  • the callus tissues are then blotted dry on a filter paper and transferred to solidified, co-cultivation medium and incubated for 3 days in the dark at 25°C.
  • Co-cultivated calli are grown on 2,4-D-containing medium for 4 weeks in the dark at 28°C in the presence of a selection agent.
  • TO rice transformants Approximately 35 independent TO rice transformants are generated for one construct. The primary transformants are transferred from a tissue culture chamber to a greenhouse. After a quantitative PCR analysis to verify copy number of the T-DNA insert, only single copy transgenic plants that exhibit tolerance to the selection agent are kept for harvest of T1 seed. Seeds are then harvested three to five months after transplanting. The method yielded single locus transformants at a rate of over 50 % (Aldemita and Hodges1996, Chan et al. 1993, Hiei et al. 1994).

[1.1.37.6] Another problem underlying the present invention is the desire for compositions that improve the health of a plant, a process which is commonly and hereinafter referred to as "plant health". The term plant health comprises various sorts of improvements of plants that are not connected to the control of pests and which do not em- brace the reduction of negative consequences of harmful fungi. The term "plant health" is to be understood to denote a condition of the plant and/or its products which is determined by several indicators alone or in combination with each other such as yield (e.g. increased biomass and/or increased content of valuable ingredients), plant vigor (e.g. improved plant growth and/or greener leaves ("greening effect"), quality (e.g. im- proved content or composition of certain ingredients) and tolerance to abiotic and/or biotic stress. The above identified indicators for the health condition of a plant may be interdependent or may result from each other.
[1.1 .37.7] It was therefore an objective of the present invention to provide a method, which solves the problems as outlined above and which especially reduces the dosage rate and / or promotes the health of a plant.
[1.1.37.8] Surprisingly, it has now been found that the use of CA fungicide compounds as defined above in cultivated plants displays a synergistic effect between the trait of the cultivated plant and the applied CA fungicide.
[1.1.37.9] Synergistic in the present context means that
a) the use of a CA fungicide compound as defined above in combination with a cultivated plant exceeds the additive effect, to be expected on the harmful fungi to be controlled and thus extends the range of action of the CA fungicide and of the active principle expressed by the cultivated planζ and/or b) such use results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the CA fungicide, when applied to the non-cultivated plant; and/or c) the CA fungicide induces "side effects" in the cultivated plant which increases plant health, as compared to the respective control plant, additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the fungicidal activity; and/or d) the CA fungicide induces "side effects" additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the fungicidal activity in the control plant which are detrimental to the plant health compared to a control plant which is not treated with said compound. In combination with the cultivated plant these negative side effects are reduced, nullified or converted to an increase of the plant health of the cultivated plant compared to a cultivated plant not treated with said compound.
[1.1.37.10] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this context as synergis- tic fungicidal activity and/or the synergistic increase of plant health.
[1 .1.37.1 1] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one CA fungicide as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically enhanced action against harmful fungi compared to the control rates that are possible with the CA fungi- cide as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth.
[1.1.37.12] Thus, the present invention relates to a method of controlling harmful fungi and/or increasing the health of a cultivated plant by treating a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth with a CA fungicide selected from the group consisting of metiram, mancozeb, thiophanate methyl, thiram, cymoxanil, ferbam, maneb, cyflufenamid, diethofencarb, fenoxanil, tecloftalam, flume- tover, carpropamid, diclocymet, iodocarb, pencycuron, propamocarb, propamocarb hy- drochloride, propineb, prothiocarb, silthiofam, zineb and ziram.
[1.1.37.13] The CA fungicides are known as fungicides. For instance, the commercially available compounds may be found in The Pesticide Manual, 13th Edition, British Crop Protection Council (2003) among other publications.
[1.1.37.14] The term "plant propagation material" is to be understood to denote all the generative parts of a plant such as seeds and vegetative plant material such as cuttings and tubers (e.g. potatoes), which can be used for the multiplication of the plant. This includes seeds, roots, fruits, tubers, bulbs, rhizomes, shoots, sprouts and other parts of plants, including seedlings and young plants, which are to be transplanted after germination or after emergence from soil. These young plants may also be protected before transplantation by a total or partial treatment by immersion or pouring. Prefera- bly, the term plant propagation material denotes seeds.
[1.1.37.15] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention relates to a method of controlling harmful fungi and/or increasing the health of a cultivated plant by treating plant propagation material, preferably seeds with a CA fungicide selected from meti- ram, mancozeb, thiophanate methyl, thiram, cymoxanil, ferbam, maneb, cyflufenamid, diethofencarb, fenoxanil, tecloftalam, flumetover, carpropamid, diclocymet, iodocarb, pencycuron, propamocarb, propamocarb hydrochloride, propineb, prothiocarb, silthio- fam, zineb and ziram, more preferably from metiram, mancozeb, thiophanate methyl, thiram, cymoxanil, ferbam and maneb.

The term "modification" means in relation to modified plants a change in the genome, epigenome, transcriptome or proteome of the modified plant, as compared to the control, wild type, mother or parent plant whereby the modification confers a trait (or more than one trait) or confers the increase of a trait (or more than one trait) as listed below.
[1.1.37.26] The modification may result in the modified plant to be a different, for ex- ample a new plant variety than the parental plant.
"Transgenic plants" are those, which genetic material has been modified by the use of recombinant DNA techniques that under natural circumstances can not readily be obtained by cross breeding, mutations or natural recombination, whereby the modification confers a trait (or more than one trait) or confers the increase of a trait (or more than one trait) as listed below as compared to the wild-type plant.
[1.1.37.27] In one embodiment, one or more genes have been integrated into the genetic material of a genetically modified plant in order to improve certain properties of the plant, preferably increase a trait as listed below as compared to the wild-type plant. Such genetic modifications also include but are not limited to targeted post-translational modification of protein(s), or to post-transcriptional modifications of oligo- or polypeptides e.g. by glycosylation or polymer additions such as prenylated, acetylated, phos- phorylated or farnesylated moieties or PEG moieties.
[1.1.37.28] In one embodiment under the term "modification" when reffering to a trans- genie plant or parts thereof is understood that the activity, expression level or amount of a gene product or the metabolite content is changed, e.g. increased or decreased, in a specific volume relative to a corresponding volume of a control, reference or wild-type plant or plant cell, including the de novo creation of the activity or expression.
[1 .1.37.29] In one embodiment the activity of a polypeptide is increased or generated by expression or overexpresion of the gene coding for said polypeptide which confers a trait or confers the increase of a trait as listed below as compared to the control plant. The term "expression" or "gene expression" means the transcription of a specific gene or specific genes or specific genetic construct. The term "expression" or "gene expression" in particular means the transcription of a gene or genes or genetic construct into structural RNA (rRNA, tRNA), regulatory RNA (e.g. miRNA, RNAi, RNAa) or mRNA with or without subsequent translation of the latter into a protein. In another embodiment the term "expression" or "gene expression" in particular means the transcription of a gene or genes or genetic construct into structural RNA (rRNA, tRNA) or mRNA with or without subsequent translation of the latter into a protein. In yet another embodiment it means the transcription of a gene or genes or genetic construct into m RNA. [1.1.37.30] The process includes transcription of DNA and processing of the resulting mRNA product. The term "increased expression" or "overexpression" as used herein means any form of expression that is additional to the original wild-type expression level. [1.1.37.31] The term "expression of a polypeptide" is understood in one embodiment to mean the level of said protein or polypeptide, preferably in an active form, in a cell or organism.
[1.1.37.32] In one embodiment the activity of a polypeptide is decreased by decreased expression of the gene coding for said polypeptide which confers a trait or confers the increase of a trait as listed below as compared to the control plant. Reference herein to "decreased expression" or "reduction or substantial elimination" of expression is taken to mean a decrease in endogenous gene expression and/or polypeptide levels and/or polypeptide activity relative to control plants. It comprises further reducing, repressing, decreasing or deleting of an expression product of a nucleic acid molecule.
[1.1.37.33] The terms "reduction", "repression", "decrease" or "deletion" relate to a cor- responding change of a property in an organism, a part of an organism such as a tissue, seed, root, tuber, fruit, leave, flower etc. or in a cell. Under "change of a property" it is understood that the activity, expression level or amount of a gene product or the metabolite content is changed in a specific volume or in a specific amount of protein relative to a corresponding volume or amount of protein of a control, reference or wild type. Preferably, the overall activity in the volume is reduced, decreased or deleted in cases if the reduction, decrease or deletion is related to the reduction, decrease or deletion of an activity of a gene product, independent whether the amount of gene product or the specific activity of the gene product or both is reduced, decreased or deleted or whether the amount, stability or translation efficacy of the nucleic acid sequence or gene encoding for the gene product is reduced, decreased or deleted.
[1 .1 .37.34] The terms "reduction", "repression", "decrease" or "deletion" include the change of said property in only parts of the subject of the present invention, for example, the modification can be found in compartment of a cell, like an organelle, or in a part of a plant, like tissue, seed, root, leave, tuber, fruit, flower etc. but is not detectable if the overall subject, i.e. complete cell or plant, is tested. Preferably, the "reduction", "repression", "decrease" or "deletion" is found cellular, thus the term "reduction, decrease or deletion of an activity" or "reduction, decrease or deletion of a metabolite content" relates to the cellular reduction, decrease or deletion compared to the wild type cell. In addition the terms "reduction", "repression", "decrease" or "deletion" include the change of said property only during different growth phases of the organism used in the inventive process, for example the reduction, repression, decrease or deletion takes place only during the seed growth or during blooming. Furthermore the terms include a transitional reduction, decrease or deletion for example because the used method, e.g. the antisense, RNAi, snRNA, dsRNA, siRNA, miRNA, ta-siRNA, cosup- pression molecule, or ribozyme, is not stable integrated in the genome of the organism or the reduction, decrease, repression or deletion is under control of a regulatory or inducible element, e.g. a chemical or otherwise inducible promoter, and has therefore o n l y a t r a n s i e n t e f f e c t .
[1.1.37.35] Methods to achieve said reduction, decrease or deletion in an expression product are known in the art, for example from the international patent application WO 2008/034648, particularly in paragraphs [0020.1.1.1], [0040.1.1 .1 ], [0040.2.1.1] and [0041.1.1.1].
[1.1.37.36] Reducing, repressing, decreasing or deleting of an expression product of a nucleic acid molecule in modified plants is known. Examples are canola i.e. double nill o i l s e e d ra p e w i t h re d u c e d a m o u n t s of e r u c i c a c i d a n d s i n a p i n s . [1.1.37.37] Such a decrease can also be achieved for example by the use of recombinant DNA technology, such as antisense or regulatory RNA (e.g. miRNA, RNAi, RNAa) or siRNA approaches. In particular RNAi, snRNA, dsRNA, siRNA, miRNA, ta-siRNA, cosuppression molecule, ribozyme, or antisense nucleic acid molecule, a nucleic acid molecule conferring the expression of a dominant-negative mutant of a protein or a nucleic acid construct capable to recombine with and silence, inactivate, repress or reduces the activity of an endogenous gene may be used to decrease the activity of a polypeptide in a transgenic plant or parts thereof or a plant cell thereof used in one embodiment of the methods of the invention. Examples of transgenic plants with re- duced, repressed, decreased or deleted expression product of a nucleic acid molecule are Carica papaya (Papaya plants) with the event name X17-2 of the University of Florida, Prunus domestica (Plum) with the event name C5 of the United States Department of Agriculture - Agricultural Research Service, or those listed in rows T9-48 and T9-49 of table 9 below. Also known are plants with increased resistance to nematodes for ex- ample by reducing, repressing, decreasing or deleting of an expression product of a nucleic acid molecule, e.g. from the PCT publication WO 2008/095886.
[1.1.37.38] The reduction or substantial elimination is in increasing order of preference at least 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% or 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 85%, 90%, or 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or more reduced compared to that of control plants. Reference herein to an "endogenous" gene not only refers to the gene in question as found in a plant in its natural form (i.e., without there being any human intervention), but also refers to that same gene (or a substantially homologous nucleic acid/gene) in an isolated form subsequently (re)introduced into a plant (a transgene). For example, a transgenic plant containing such a transgene may encounter a substantial reduction of the transgene expression and/or substantial reduction of expression of the endogenous gene. [1.1.37.39] The terms "control" or "reference" are exchangeable and can be a cell or a part of a plant such as an organelle like a chloroplast or a tissue, in particular a plant, which was not modified or treated according to the herein described process according to the invention. Accordingly, the plant used as control or reference corresponds to the plant as much as possible and is as identical to the subject matter of the invention as possible. Thus, the control or reference is treated identically or as identical as possible, saying that only conditions or properties might be different which do not influence the quality of the tested property other than the treatment of the present invention.
[1.1.37.40] It is possible that control or reference plants are wild-type plants. However, "control" or "reference" may refer to plants carrying at least one genetic modification, when the plants employed in the process of the present invention carry at least one genetic modification more than said control or reference plants. In one embodiment control or reference plants may be transgenic but differ from transgenic plants employed in the process of the present invention only by said modification contained in the transgenic plants employed in the process of the present invention. [1 .1.37.41] The term "wild type" or "wild-type plants" refers to a plant without said genetic modification. These terms can refer to a cell or a part of a plant such as an organelle like a chloroplast or a tissue, in particular a plant, which lacks said genetic modification but is otherwise as identical as possible to the plants with at least one genetic modification employed in the present invention. In a particular embodiment the "wild-type" plant is not transgenic.
[1.1.37.42] Preferably, the wild type is identically treated according to the herein described process according to the invention. The person skilled in the art will recognize if wild-type plants will not require certain treatments in advance to the process of the present invention, e.g. non-transgenic wild-type plants will not need selection for trans- genie plants for example by treatment with a selecting agent such as a herbicide.
[1.1.37.43] The control plant may also be a nullizygote of the plant to be assessed. The term "nullizygotes" refers to a plant that has undergone the same production process as a transgenic, yet has not acquired the same genetic modification as the corresponding transgenic. If the starting material of said production process is transgenic, then nullizygotes are also transgenic but lack the additional genetic modification introduced by the production process. In the process of the present invention the purpose of wild- type and nullizygotes is the same as the one for control and reference or parts thereof. All of these serve as controls in any comparison to provide evidence of the advantageous effect of the present invention. [1.1.37.44] Preferably, any comparison is carried out under analogous conditions. The term "analogous conditions" means that all conditions such as, for example, culture or growing conditions, soil, nutrient, water content of the soil, temperature, humidity or surrounding air or soil, assay conditions (such as buffer composition, temperature, substrates, pathogen strain, concentrations and the like) are kept identical between the experiments to be compared. The person skilled in the art will recognize if wild-type, control or reference plants will not require certain treatments in advance to the process of the present invention, e.g. non-transgenic wild-type plants will not need selection for transgenic plants for example by treatment with herbicide.
[1.1.37.45] In case that the conditions are not analogous the results can be normalized or standardized based on the control.
[1.1.37.46] The "reference", "control", or "wild type" is preferably a plant, which was not modified or treated according to the herein described process of the invention and is in any other property as similar to a plant, employed in the process of the present invention of the invention as possible. The reference, control or wild type is in its genome, transcriptome, proteome or metabolome as similar as possible to a plant, employed in the process of the present invention of the present invention. Preferably, the term "reference-" "control-" or "wild-type-" plant, relates to a plant, which is nearly genetically identical to the organelle, cell, tissue or organism, in particular plant, of the present invention or a part thereof preferably 90% or more, e.g. 95%, more preferred are 98%, even more preferred are 99,00%, in particular 99, 10%, 99,30%, 99,50%, 99,70%, 99,90%, 99,99%, 99,999% or more. Most preferable the "reference", "control", or "wild type" is a plant, which is genetically identical to the plant, cell, a tissue or organelle used according to the process of the invention except that the responsible or activity conferring nucleic acid molecules or the gene product encoded by them have been amended, manipulated, exchanged or introduced in the organelle, cell, tissue, plant, employed in the process of the present invention.
[1 .1.37.47] Preferably, the reference and the subject matter of the invention are compared after standardization and normalization, e.g. to the amount of total RNA, DNA, or protein or activity or expression of reference genes, like housekeeping genes, such as ubiquitin, actin or ribosomal proteins.
[1 .1.37.48] The genetic modification carried in the organelle, cell, tissue, in particular plant used in the process of the present invention is in one embodiment stable e.g. due to a stable transgenic expression or to a stable mutation in the corresponding endogenous gene or to a modulation of the expression or of the behaviour of a gene, or tran- sient, e.g. due to an transient transformation or temporary addition of a modulator such as an agonist or antagonist or inducible, e.g. after transformation with a inducible construct carrying a nucleic acid molecule under control of a inducible promoter and adding the inducer, e.g. tetracycline.
[1.1.37.49] Preferred plants according to the invention, from which "modified plants" and/or "transgenic plants" are selected, are selected from the group consisting of cereals, such as maize (corn), wheat, barley sorghum, rice, rye, millet, triticale, oat, pseu- docereals (such as buckwheat and quinoa), alfalfa, apples, banana, beet, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, canola (rapeseed), carrot, cauliflower, cherries, chickpea, Chinese cabbage, Chinese mustard, collard, cotton, cranberries, creeping bentgrass, cucumber, eggplant, flax, grape, grapefruit, kale, kiwi, kohlrabi, melon, mizuna, mustard , papaya, peanut, pears, pepper, persimmons, pigeon pea, pineapple, plum, plum, potato, raspberry, rutabaga, soybean, squash, strawberries, sugar beet, sugarcane, sunflower, sweet corn, tobacco, tomato, turnip, walnut, watermelon and winter squash; preferably the plants are selected from the group consisting of alfalfa, barley, canola (rapeseed), cotton, maize (corn), papaya, potato, rice, sorghum, soybean, squash, sugar beet, sugarcane, tomato and cereals (such as wheat, barley, rye and oat), most preferably the plant is selected from the group consising of soybean, maize (corn), rice, cotton, oilseed rape, tomatoes, potatoes and cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and oat.

[1.1.37.55] The cultivated plants are plants, which comprise at least one trait. The term "trait" refers to a property, which is present in the plant either by genetic engineering or by conventional breeding techniques. Each trait has to be assessed in relation to its respective control. Examples of traits are:
- herbicide tolerance,
- insect resistance by expression of bacterial toxins,
- fungal resistance or viral resistance or bacterial resistance, - antibiotic resistance,
- stress tolerance,
- maturation alteration,
- content modification of chemicals present in the cultivated plant, preferably increasing the content of fine chemicals advantageous for applications in the field of the food and/or feed industry, the cosmetics industry and/or the pharmaceutical industry,
- modified nutrient uptake, preferably an increased nutrient use efficiency and/or resistance to conditions of nutrient deficiency,
- improved fiber quality,
- plant vigor, - modified colour,
- fertility restoration,
- and male sterility.
[1.1.37.56] Principally, cultivated plants may also comprise combinations of the aforementioned traits, e.g. they may be tolerant to the action of herbicides and express bac- terial toxins.
[1.1.37.57] Principally, all cultivated plants may also provide combinations of the aforementioned properties, e.g. they may be tolerant to the action of herbicides and express bacterial toxins.
[1.1.37.58] In the detailed description below, the term "plant" refers to a cultivated plant. [1.1.37.59] In one embodiment of the invention, the term "increased plant health" means an increase, as compared to the respective control, in a trait selected from the group consisting of: yield (e.g. increased biomass and/or seed yield), plant vigor (e. g. improved plant growth and/or early vigour and/or "greening effect", meaning greener leaves, preferably leaves with a higher greenness index), early vigour, greening effect (preservation of green surface of a leaf), quality (e. g. improved content or composition of certain ingredients), tolerance to environmental stress, herbicide tolerance, insect resistance, fungal resistance or viral resistance or bacterial resistance, antibiotic resistance, content of fine chemicals advantageous for applications in the field of the food and/or feed industry, the cosmetics industry or the pharmaceutical industry, nutrient use efficiency, nutrient use uptake, fiber quality, color,and male sterility and/or "increased plant health" is to be understood as an alteration or modification, compared to the respective control, in a trait selected from the group consisting of maturation, fertility restoration and color. "Plant health" is defined as a condition of the plant which is determined by several aspects alone or in combination with each other. One indicator for the condition of the plant is its "yield".
[1 .1 .37.60] So, in a preferred embodiment of the invention, the term "increased plant health" means an increase in yield as compared to the respective control. [1.1.37.61] In one embodiment, term "increased plant health" means any combination of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or more of the above mentioned traits.
[1 .1 .37.62] In one embodiment of the invention, the term "increased plant health" means that the same effect as in the control plant can be achieved in the cultivated plant by reduced application rates and/or reduced application dosages. [1 .1 .37.63] The term "yield" in general means a measurable produce of economic value, typically related to a specified crop, to an area, and to a period of time. Individual plant parts directly contribute to yield based on their number, size and/or weight, or the actual yield is the yield per square meter for a crop and year, which is determined by dividing total production (includes both harvested and appraised production) by planted square meters. The term "yield" of a plant may relate to vegetative biomass (root and/or shoot biomass), to reproductive organs, and/or to propagules (such as seeds) of t h a t p l a n t .
[1.1.37.64] In one embodiment yield is to be understood as any plant product of economic value that is produced by the plant such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, seeds, wood or even flowers. The plant products may in addition be further utilized a n d / o r p r o c e s s e d a f t e r h a r v e s t i n g. [1.1.37.65] According to the present invention, "increased yield" of a plant, in particular of an agricultural, horticultural, silvicultural and/or ornamental plant means that the yield of a product of the respective plant is increased by a measurable amount over the yield of the same product of the control plant produced under the same conditions. [1.1.37.66] In one embodiment of the invention increased yield is characterized, among others, by the following improved properties of the plant and/or its products compared with a control, such as increased weight, increased height, increased biomass such as higher overall fresh weight, higher grain yield, more tillers, larger leaves, increased shoot growth, increased protein content, increased oil content, increased starch content and/or increased pigment content.
[1 .1 .37.67] Another indicator for the condition of the plant is its "plant vigor". [1.1.37.68] According to the present invention, "increased plant vigor" of a plant, in particular of an agricultural, horticultural, silvicultural and/or ornamental plant means that the vigor of a plant is increased by a measurable amount over the vigor of the control p l a n t u n d e r t h e s a m e c o n d i t i o n s . [1.1.37.69] In one embodiment of the invention the plant vigor becomes manifest in at least one aspects selected from the group consisting of improved vitality of the plant, improved plant growth, improved plant development, improved visual appearance, im- proved plant stand (less plant verse/lodging), better harvestability, improved emergence, enhanced nodulation in particular rhizobial nodulation, bigger size, bigger leaf blade, increased plant weight, increased plant height, increased tiller number, increased shoot growth, increased root growth (extensive root system), increased yield when grown on poor soils or unfavorable climate, enhanced photosynthetic activity, enhanced pigment content (for example chlorophyll content), earlier flowering, shorter flowering period, earlier fruiting, earlier and improved germination, earlier grain maturity, improved self-defence mechanisms, improved stress tolerance and resistance of the plants against biotic and abiotic stress factors such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, insects, heat stress, cold stress, drought stress, UV stress and/or salt stress, less non- productive tillers, less dead basal leaves, less input needed (such as fertilizers, water or pesticides), greener leaves ("greening effect"), less premature stress-induced ripening and less fruit abscission, complete maturation under shortened vegetation periods, longer and better grain-filling, less seeds needed, easier harvesting (for example by induction of leaf defoliation), faster and more uniform ripening, induction of young fruit abscission ("fruit thinning"), improved storability, longer shelf-life, easier and more cost effective storage conditions, longer panicles, delay of senescence, stronger and/or more productive tillers, better extractability of ingredients, improved quality of seeds (for being seeded in the following seasons for seed production) and/or reduced production of ethylene and/or the inhibition of its reception by the plant as compared with the control plant. The improvement of the plant vigor according to the present invention compared with the control, particularly means that the improvement of any one or several or all of the above mentioned plant characteristics are improved independently of the pesticidal action of the composition or active ingredients. "Early vigour" refers to active healthy well-balanced growth especially during early stages of plant growth, and may result from increased plant fitness due to, for example, the plants being better adapted to their environment (i.e. optimizing the use of energy resources and partitioning between shoot and root). Plants having early vigour also show increased seedling survival and a better establishment of the crop, which often results in highly uniform fields (with the crop growing in uniform manner, i.e. with the majority of plants reaching the various stages of development at substantially the same time), and often better and higher yield. Therefore, early vigour may be determined by measuring various factors, such as thousand kernel weight, percentage germination, percentage emergence, seedling growth, seedling height, root length, root and shoot biomass and many more.
[1 .1 .37.70] Another indicator for the condition of the plant is the "quality" of a plant a n d / o r i t s p r o d u c t s . [1 .1.37.71 ] According to the present invention, "enhanced quality" means that certain crop characteristics such as the content or composition of certain ingredients are increased or improved by a measurable or noticeable amount over the same factor of the control plant produced under the same conditions.
[1.1.37.72] In one embodiment of the invention the quality of a product of the respective plant becomes manifest in in at least one aspects selected from the group consisting of improved nutrient content, improved protein content, improved content of fatty acids, improved metabolite content, improved carotenoid content, improved sugar content, improved amount of essential and/or non-essential amino acids, improved nutrient composition, improved protein composition, improved composition of fatty acids, im- proved metabolite composition, improved carotenoid composition, improved sugar composition, improved amino acids composition, improved or optimal fruit color, improved texture of fruits, improved leaf color, higher storage capacity and/or higher processa bi l ity of th e ha rvested prod ucts as com pared to the control. [1.1.37.73] In one embodiment of the invention the quality of a product of the respective plant becomes manifest in in at least one aspects selected from the group consisting of improved nutrient yield, improved protein yield, improved yield of fatty acids, improved metabolite yield, improved carotenoid yield, improved sugar yield and/or improved yield of essential and/or non-essential amino acids of the harvested products as compared to the control. In one embodiment of the invention, the nutrient yield, protein yield, yield of fatty acids, metabolite yield, carotenoid yield, sugar yield and/or yield of essential and/or non-essential amino acids is calculated as a fuction of seed and/or biomass yield in relation to the respective nutrient, protein, fatty acids, metabolite, carotenoid, sugar and/or essential and/or non-essential amino acids. [1.1.37.74] The terms "increase", "improve" or "enhance" are interchangeable and shall mean in the sense of the application at least a 0.5%, 1 %, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% or 10%, preferably at least 15% or 20%, more preferably at least 25%, 30%, 35% or 40% more of the respective trait, characteristic, aspect, property, feature or atribut as disclosed in this specification, for example yield and/or growth in comparison to control plants as defined herein. [1.1.37.75] In one embodiment of the invention the increased seed yield manifest itself as one or more of the following: a) an increase in seed biomass (total seed weight) which may be on an individual seed basis and/or per plant and/or per square meter; b) increased number of flowers per plant; c) increased number of (filled) seeds; d) increased seed filling rate (which is expressed as the ratio between the number of filled seeds divided by the total number of seeds); e) increased harvest index, which is expressed as a ratio of the yield of harvestable parts, such as seeds, divided by the total biomass; and f) increased thousand kernel weight (TKW), which is extrapolated from the number of filled seeds counted and their total weight. An increased TKW may result from an increased seed size and/or seed weight, and may also result from an increase in embryo and/or endosperm size.
[1.1.37.76] In one embodiment of the invention the increase in seed yield is also mani- fested as an increase in seed size and/or seed volume. Furthermore, an increase in seed yield is also manifest itself as an increase in seed area and/or seed length and/or seed width and/or seed perimeter. In a further embodiment increased yield also results in modified architecture, or may occur because of modified architecture.
[1.1.37.77] In one embodiment the beneficial effect of the present invention may mani- fest itself not in the seed yield per se, but in the seed quality and the quality of the agricultural products produced from the plants treated according to the invention. Seed quality may relate to different parameters known in the art, such as enhanced nutrient or fine chemical content, e.g. amounts of vitamins or fatty acids and their composition; colouring or shape of the seed; germination rate or seed vigour; or reduced amounts of toxins, e.g. fungal toxins, and/or of substances hard to digest or indigestible, e.g. phy- tate, lignin.
[1 .1.37.78] The "greenness index" as used herein is calculated from digital images of plants. For each pixel belonging to the plant object on the image, the ratio of the green value versus the red value (in the RGB model for encoding colour) is calculated. The greenness index is expressed as the percentage of pixels for which the green-to-red ratio exceeds a given threshold. Under normal growth conditions, under salt stress growth conditions, and under reduced nutrient availability growth conditions, the greenness index of plants is measured in the last imaging before flowering. In contrast, under drought stress growth conditions, the greenness index of plants is measured in the first imaging after drought. Similarly the measurements may be done after exposure to other abiotic stress treatments, e.g. temperature.
[1.1.37.79] Another indicator for the condition of the plant is the plant's tolerance or resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress factors. Biotic and abiotic stress, especially over longer terms, can have harmful effects on plants. Biotic stress is caused by living or- ganisms while abiotic stress is caused for example by environmental extremes or con- d i t i o n s u n f a v o u r a b l e f o r a n o p t i m a l g r o w t h o f t h e p l a n t . [1.1.37.80] According to the present invention, "enhanced tolerance or resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress factors" means (1.) that certain negative factors caused by biotic and/or abiotic stress are diminished in a measurable or noticeable amount as compared to control plants exposed to the same conditions, and (2.) that the negative effects are not diminished by a direct action of the composition on the stress factors, for example by its fungicidal or insecticidal action which directly destroys the microorganisms or pests, but rather by a stimulation of the plants' own defensive reactions ("priming") against said stress factors ("induced resistance") or by the above mentioned syn- e r g i s t i c e f f e c t . [1.1.37.81] Biotic stress can be caused by living organisms, such as pests (for example insects, arachnides, nematodes), competing plants (for example weeds), microorganisms (such as phythopathogenic fungi and/or bacteria) and/or viruses. Abiotic stress can be caused for example by extremes in temperature such as heat or cold (heat stress, cold stress), strong variations in temperature, temperatures unusual for the specific season, drought (drought stress), extreme wetness, high salinity (salt stress), radiation (for example by increased UV radiation due to the decreasing ozone layer), increased ozone levels (ozone stress), organic pollution (for example by phythotoxic amounts of pesticides) and inorganic pollution (for example by heavy metal contaminants). Both biotic as well as abiotic stress factors may in addition lead to secondary s t r e s s e s s u c h a s o x i d a t i v e s t r e s s . [1.1.37.82] As a result of biotic and/or abiotic stress factors, the quantity and the quality of the stressed pl ants , thei r crops a nd fru its d ecrease . [1.1.37.83] In one embodiment of the invention enhanced tolerance or resistance to biotic of the respective plant becomes manifest in in at least one aspects selected from the group consisting of tolerance or resistance to pests (for example insects, arachnides, nematodes), competing plants (for example weeds), microorganisms (such as phythopathogenic fungi and/or bacteria) and/or viruses.
[1.1.37.84] In one embodiment of the invention enhanced tolerance or resistance to abiotic of the respective plant becomes manifest in in at least one aspects selected from the group consisting of tolerance or resistance to extremes in temperature such as heat or cold (heat stress, cold stress), strong variations in temperature, temperatures unusual for the specific season, drought (drought stress), extreme wetness, high salinity (salt stress), radiation (for example by increased UV radiation due to the decreasing ozone layer), increased ozone levels (ozone stress), organic pollution (for ex- ample by phythotoxic amounts of pesticides) and inorganic pollution (for example by heavy metal contaminants).
[1.1.37.85] The above identified indicators for the health condition of a plant may be interdependent and may result from each other. For example, an increased resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress may lead to a better plant vigor, e.g. to better and bigger crops, and thus to an increased yield. Inversely, a more developed root system may result in an increased resistance to biotic and/or abiotic stress. However, these inter- dependencies and interactions are neither all known nor fully understood.
[1.1.37.86] In one embodiment of the present invention, plant yield is increased by increasing the environmental stress tolerance(s) of a plant, in particular the tolerance to abiotic stress. Generally, the term "increased tolerance to stress" can be defined as survival of plants, and/or higher yield production, under stress conditions as compared to a control plant: For example, the plant of the invention is better adapted to the stress conditions. "Improved adaptation" to environmental stress like e.g. drought, heat, nutrient depletion, freezing and/or chilling temperatures refers herein to an improved plant performance resulting in an increased yield, particularly with regard to one or more of the yield related traits as defined in more detail above. [1.1.37.87] During its life-cycle, a plant is generally confronted with a diversity of environmental conditions. Any such conditions, which may, under certain circumstances, have an impact on plant yield, are herein referred to as "stress" condition. Environmental stresses may generally be divided into biotic and abiotic (environmental) stresses. Unfavourable nutrient conditions are sometimes also referred to as "environ- mental stress". In one embodiment the present invention does also contemplate solutions for this kind of environmental stress, e.g. referring to increased nutrient use efficiency.
[1.1.37.88] For the purposes of the description of the present invention, the terms "enhanced tolerance to stress", "enhanced resistance to environmental stress", "enhanced tolerance to environmental stress", "improved adaptation to environmental stress" and other variations and expressions similar in its meaning are used interchangeably and refer, without limitation, to an improvement in tolerance to one or more environmental stress(es) as described herein and as compared to a corresponding control plant.
[1.1.37.89] The term abiotic stress tolerance(s) refers for example low temperature tol- erance, drought tolerance or improved water use efficiency (WUE), heat tolerance, salt stress tolerance and others. Stress tolerance in plants like low temperature, drought, heat and salt stress tolerance can have a common theme important for plant growth, namely the availability of water. Plants are typically exposed during their life cycle to conditions of reduced environmental water content. The protection strategies are simi- lar to those of chilling tolerance.
[1.1.37.90] Accordingly, in one embodiment of the present invention, said yield-related trait relates to an increased water use efficiency of the plant of the invention and/ or an increased tolerance to drought conditions of the plant of the invention. Water use efficiency (WUE) is a parameter often correlated with drought tolerance. An increase in biomass at low water availability may be due to relatively improved efficiency of growth or reduced water consumption. In selecting traits for improving crops, a decrease in water use, without a change in growth would have particular merit in an irrigated agricultural system where the water input costs were high. An increase in growth without a corresponding jump in water use would have applicability to all agricultural systems. In many agricultural systems where water supply is not limiting, an increase in growth, even if it came at the expense of an increase in water use also increases yield.
[1.1.37.91] In one embodiment of the present invention, an increased plant yield is mediated by increasing the "nutrient use efficiency of a plant", e.g. by improving the nutrient use efficiency of nutrients including, but not limited to, phosphorus, potassium, and nitrogen. An increased nutrient use efficiency is in one embodiment an enhanced nitro- gen uptake, assimilation, accumulation or utilization. These complex processes are associated with absorption, translocation, assimilation, and redistribution of nitrogen in the plant.
[1.1.37.92] It has to be emphasized that the above mentioned effects of the method according to the invention, i.e. enhanced health of the plant, are also present when the plant is not under biotic stress for example when the plant is not under fungal- or pest pressure. It is evident that a plant suffering from fungal or insecticidal attack produces a smaller biomass and a smaller crop yield as compared to a plant which has been subjected to curative or preventive treatment against the pathogenic fungus or pest and which can grow without the damage caused by the biotic stress factor. However, the method according to the invention leads to an enhanced plant health even in the absence of any biotic stress and in particular of any phytopathogenic fungi or pest. This means that the positive effects of the method of the invention cannot be explained just by the pesticidal activities of the compounds of the invention, but are based on further activity profiles.
[1.1.37.93] The term "plant" as used herein encompasses whole plants and progeny of the plants and plant parts, including seeds, shoots, stems, leaves, roots (including tu- b e r s ) , f l o w e r s , a n d t i s s u e s a n d o r g a n s . [1.1.37.94] For the purposes of the invention, as a rule the plural is intended to encom- pass the singular and vice versa.
[1.1.37.95] Tolerance to herbicides can be obtained by creating insensitivity at the site of action of the herbicide by expression of a target enzyme which is resistant to herbicide; rapid metabolism (conjugation or degradation) of the herbicide by expression of enzymes which inactivate herbicide; or poor uptake and translocation of the herbicide. Examples are the expression of enzymes which are tolerant to the herbicide in comparison to wild type enzymes, such as the expression of 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3- phosphate synthase (EPSPS), which is tolerant to glyphosate (see e.g. Heck et.al, Crop Sci . 45, 2005, 329-339; Funke et.al, PNAS 103, 2006, 13010-13015; US 5188642, US 4940835, US 5633435, US 5804425, US 5627061 ), the expression of glutamine synthase which is tolerant to glufosinate and bialaphos (see e.g. US 5646024, US 5561236) and DNA constructs coding for dicamba-degrading enzymes (see e.g. US 7105724). Gene constructs can be obtained, for example, from microorganism or plants, which are tolerant to said herbicides, such as the Agrobacterium strain CP4 EPSPS which is resistant to glyphosate; Streptomyces bacteria which are resistance to glufosinate; Arabidopsis, Daucus carota, Pseudomonoas spp. or Zea mais with chimeric gene sequences coding for HDDP (see e.g. WO 1996/38567, WO 2004/55191 ); Arabidopsis thaliana which is resistant to protox inhibitors (see e.g. US 2002/0073443).

The methods of producing such transgenic plants are generally known to the person skilled in the art and are described, for example, in the publications mentioned above.
[1.1.37.98] Plants, which are capable of synthesising one or more selectively acting bacterial toxins, comprise for example at least one toxin from toxin-producing bacteria, especially those of the genus Bacillus, in particular plants capable of synthesising one or more insecticidal proteins from Bacillus cereus or Bacillus popliae; or insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis, such as delta-endotoxins, e.g. CrylA(b), CrylA(c), CrylF, CrylF(a2), CryllA(b), CrylllA, CrylllB(bi ) or Cryθc, or vegetative insecticidal proteins (VIP), e.g. Vl P1 , Vl P2, Vl P3 or VIP3A; or insecticidal proteins of bacteria colonis- ing nematodes, for example Photorhabdus spp. or Xenorhabdus spp., such as Photor- habdus luminescens, Xenorhabdus nematophilus; toxins produced by animals, such as scorpion toxins, arachnid toxins, wasp toxins and other insect-specific neurotoxins; toxins produced by fungi, such as Streptomycetes toxins, plant lectins, such as pea lectins, barley lectins or snowdrop lectins; agglutinins; proteinase inhibitors, such as trypsine inhibitors, serine protease inhibitors, patatin, cystatin, papain inhibitors; ribo- some-inactivating proteins (RIP), such as ricin, maize-RIP, abrin, luffin, saporin or bryodin; steroid metabolism enzymes, such as 3-hydroxysteroidoxidase, ecdysteroid- UDP-glycosyl-transferase, cholesterol oxidases, ecdysone inhibitors, HMG-COA- reductase, ion channel blockers, such as blockers of sodium or calcium channels, ju- venile hormone esterase, diuretic hormone receptors, stilbene synthase, bibenzyl synthase, chitinases and glucanases.
[1.1.37.99] In one embodiment a plant is capable of producing a toxin, lectin or inhibitor if it contains at least one cell comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding said toxin, lectin, inhibitor or inhibitor producing enzyme, and said nucleic acid sequence is transcribed and translated and if appropriate the resulting protein processed and/or secreted in a constitutive manner or subject to developmental, inducible or tissue-specific regulation.
[1 .1.37.100] In the context of the present invention there are to be understood delta. - endotoxins, for example CrylA(b), CrylA(c), CrylF, CrylF(a2), CryllA(b), CrylllA, Cry- IIIB(b1 ) or Cry9c, or vegetative insecticidal proteins (VIP), for example VIP1 , VIP2, VIP3 or VIP3A, expressly also hybrid toxins, truncated toxins and modified toxins. Hybrid toxins are produced recombinantly by a new combination of different domains of those proteins (see, for example, WO 02/15701 ). An example for a truncated toxin is a truncated CrylA(b), which is expressed in the Bt11 maize from Syngenta Seed SAS, as described below. In the case of modified toxins, one or more amino acids of the naturally occurring toxin are replaced. In such amino acid replacements, preferably non- naturally present protease recognition sequences are inserted into the toxin, such as, for example, in the case of CrylllA055, a cathepsin-D-recognition sequence is inserted into a CrylllA toxin (see WO 2003/018810 ). [1.1.37.101] Examples of such toxins or transgenic plants capable of synthesising such toxins are disclosed, for example, in EP-A-O 374 753, WO 93/07278, WO 95/34656, EP-A-O 427 529, EP-A-451 878 and WO 2003/052073.
[1.1.37.102] The processes for the preparation of such transgenic plants are generally known to the person skilled in the art and are described, for example, in the publications mentioned above. Cryl-type deoxyribonucleic acids and their preparation are known, for example, , from WO 95/34656, EP-A-O 367 474, EP-A-O 401 979 and WO 1990/13651.
[1.1.37.103] The toxin contained in the transgenic plants imparts to the plants tolerance to harmful insects. Such insects can occur in any taxonomic group of insects, but are especially commonly found in the beetles (Coleoptera), two-winged insects (Diptera) and butterflies (Lepidoptera).
[1.1.37.104] Preferably, the plant capable of expression of bacterial toxins is selected from cereals such as wheat, barley, rye, oat; canola, cotton, eggplant, lettuce, sorghum, soybean, rice, oil seed rape, sugar beet, sugarcane, grapes, lentils, sunflowers, alfalfa, pome fruits; stone fruits; peanuts; coffee; tea; strawberries; turf; vegetables, such as tomatoes, potatoes, cucurbits and lettuce, more preferably, the plant is selected from cotton, soybean, maize (corn), rice, tomatoes, potatoes, oilseed rape and cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and oat, most preferably from cotton, soybean, maize and cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and oat.
[1.1.37.105] Examples of commercial available transgenic plants capable of expression of bacterial toxins are the corn varieties "YieldGard corn rootworm" (Monsanto), ΥieldGard VT" (Monsanto), "Herculex RW" (Dow, Pioneer), "Herculex Rootworm" (Dow, Pioneer) and "Agrisure CRW" (Syngenta) with resistance against corn rootworm; the corn varieties "YieldGard corn borer" (Monsanto), ,,YieldGard VT Pro" (Monsanto), "Agrisure CB/LL" (Syngenta), "Agrisure 3000GT" (Syngenta), "Hercules I", "Hercules II" (Dow, Pioneer), "KnockOut" (Novartis), ,,NatureGard" (Mycogen) and ,,Starl_ink" (Aventis) with resistance against corn borer, the corn varieties ,,Herculex I" (Dow, Pioneer) and ,,Herculex Xtra" (Dow, Pioneer) with resistance against western bean cutworm, corn borer, black cutworm and fall armyworm; the corn variety "YieldGard Plus" (Monsanto) with resistance against corn borer and corn rootworm; the cotton variety "Bollgard I"" (Monsanto) with resistance against tobacco budworm; the cotton varieties "Bollgard II" (Monsanto), ,,WideStrike" (Dow) and,,VipCot" (Syngenta) with resistance against tobacco budworm, cotton bollworm, fall armyworm, beet armyworm, cabbage looper, soybean lopper and pink bollworm; the potato varieties "NewLeaf", "NewLeaf Y" and "NewLeaf Plus" (Monsanto) with tobacco hornworm resistance and the eggplant varieties "Bt brinjal", "Dumaguete Long Purple", "Mara" with resistance against brinjal fruit and shoot borer, bruit borer and cotton bollworm (see e.g. US5128130). Further transgenic plants with insect resistance are commonly known, such as yellow stem- borer resistant rice (see e.g. Molecular Breeding, Volume 18, 2006, Number 1 ), lepi- dopteran resistant lettuce (see e.g. US 5349124 ), resistant soybean (see e.g. US 7432421 ) and rice with resistance against Lepidopterans, such as rice stemborer, rice skipper, rice cutworm, rice caseworm, rice leaffolder and rice armyworm (see e.g. WO 2001021821). The methods of producing such transgenic plants are generally known to the person skilled in the art and are described, for example, in the publications mentioned above.
[1.1.37.106] Preferably, plants, which are capable of synthesising antipathogenic substances are selected from soybean, maize (corn), rice, tomatoes, potato, banana, papaya, tobacco, grape, plum and cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and oat, most preferably from soybean, maize (corn), rice, cotton, tomatoes, potato, banana, papaya, oil seed rape and cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and oat.
[1.1.37.107] Plants, which are capable of synthesising antipathogenic substances having a selective action are for example plants expressing the so-called "pathogenesis- related proteins" (PRPs, see e.g. EP-A-O 392 225) or so-called "antifungal proteins" (AFPs, see e.g. US 6864068). A wide range of antifungal proteins with activity against plant pathogenic fungi have been isolated from certain plant species and are common knowledge. Examples of such antipathogenic substances and transgenic plants capable of synthesising such antipathogenic substances are known, for example, from EP- A-O 392 225, WO 93/05153, WO 95/33818, and EP-A-O 353 191 . Transgenic plants which are resistant against fungal, viral and bacterial pathogens are produced by intro- ducing plant resistance genes. Numerous resistant genes have been identified, isolated and were used to improve plant resistant, such as the N gene which was introduced into tobacco lines that are susceptible to Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) in order to produce TMV-resistant tobacco plants (see e.g. US 5571706), the Prf gene, which was introduced into plants to obtain enhanced pathogen resistance (see e.g. WO 199802545) and the Rps2 gene from Arabidopsis thaliana, which was used to create resistance to bacterial pathogens including Pseudomonas syringae (see e.g. WO 199528423). Plants exhibiting systemic acquired resistance response were obtained by introducing a nucleic acid molecule encoding the TIR domain of the N gene (see e.g. US 6630618). Further examples of known resistance genes are the Xa21 gene, which has been introduced into a number of rice cultivars (see e.g. US 5952485, US 5977434, WO 1999/09151 , WO 1996/22375), the Rcg1 gene for colletotrichum resistance (see e.g. US 2006/225152), the prp1 gene (see e.g. US 5859332, WO 2008/017706), the ppv-cp gene to introduce resistance against plum pox virus (see e.g. US PP15,154Ps), the P1 gene (see e.g. US5968828), genes such as BIbI , Blb2, Blb3 and RB2 to introduce resistance against Phytophthora infestans in potato (see e.g. US 7148397), the LRPKmI gene (see e.g. WO1999064600), the P1 gene for potato virus Y resistance (see e.g. US 5968828) , the HA5-1 gene (see e.g. US5877403 and US6046384), the PIP gene to indroduce a broad resistant to viruses, such as potato virus X (PVX), potato virus Y (PVY), potato leafroll virus (PLRV) (see e.g. EP 0707069) and genes such as Arabidopsis N116, ScaM4 and ScaM5 genes to obtain fungal resistance (see e.g. US 6706952 and EP 1018553). The methods of producing such trans- genie plants are generally known to the person skilled in the art and are described, for example, in the publications mentioned above.
[1.1 .37.108] Antipathogenic substances which can be expressed by such transgenic plants include, for example, ion channel blockers, such as blockers for sodium and cal- cium channels, for example the viral KP1 , KP4 or KP6 toxins; stilbene synthases; bibenzyl synthases; chitinases; glucanases; the so-called "pathogenesis-related proteins"" (PRPs; see e.g. EP-A-O 392 225); antipathogenic substances produced by microorganisms, for example peptide antibiotics or heterocyclic antibiotics (see e.g. WO 1995/33818) or protein or polypeptide factors involved in plant pathogen defense (so- called "plant disease resistance genes", as described in WO 2003/000906).
[1.1.37.109] Antipathogenic substances produced by the plants are able to protect the plants against a variety of pathogens, such as fungi, viruses and bacteria.

[1 .1.37.1 14] Transgenic plants with resistance against nematodes and which may be used in the methods of the present invention are, for examples, soybean plants with r e s i s t a n c e t o s o y b e a n c y s t n e m a t o d e s . [1.1.37.1 15] Methods have been proposed for the genetic transformation of plants in order to confer increased resistance to plant parasitic nematodes. U.S. Patent Nos. 5,589,622 and 5,824,876 are directed to the identification of plant genes expressed specifically in or adjacent to the feeding site of the plant after attachment by the nematode. [1.1.37.1 16] Also known in the art are transgenic plants with reduced feeding structures for parasitic nematodes, e.g. plants resistant to herbicides except of those parts or those cells that are nematode feeding sites and treating such plant with a herbicide to prevent, reduce or limit nematode feeding by damaging or destroying feeding sites (e.g. US 5866777). [1.1.37.1 17] Use of RNAi to target essential nematode genes has been proposed, for example, in PCT Publication WO 2001/96584, WO 2001/17654, US 2004/0098761 , US 2005/0091 71 3, US 2005/0188438, US 2006/00371 01 , US 2006/0080749, US 2007/0199100, and US 2007/0250947. [1.1.37.118] Transgenic nematode resistant plants have been disclosed, for example in the PCT publications WO 2008/095886 and WO 2008/095889.
[1.1.37.1 19] Plants which are resistant to antibiotics, such as kanamycin, neomycin and ampicillin. The naturally occurring bacterial nptl l gene expresses the enzyme that blocks the effects of the antibiotics kanamycin and neomycin. The ampicillin resistance gene ampR (also known as blaTEMI ) is derived from the bacterium Salmonella paratyphi and is used as a marker gene in the transformation of micro-organisms and plants. It is responsible for the synthesis of the enzyme beta-lactamase, which neutralises antibiotics in the penicillin group, including ampicillin. Transgenic plants with resistance against antibiotics, are, for examples potato, tomato, flax, canola, oilseed rape and corn (see e.g. Plant Cell Reports, 20, 2001 , 610-615. Trends in Plant Science, 1 1 , 2006, 317-319. Plant Molecular Biology, 37, 1998, 287-296. MoI Gen Genet., 257, 1998, 606-13.). Plant Cell Reports, 6, 1987, 333-336.

Federal Register (USA), Vol.60, No.141 , 1995, page 37870. Canadian Food Inspection Agency, FD/OFB-095-264-A, October 1999, FD/OFB-099-127-A, October 1999. Preferably, the plant is selected from soybean, maize (corn), rice, cotton, oilseed rape, potato, sugarcane, alfalfa, tomatoes and cereals, such as wheat, barley, rye and oat, most prefera- bly from soybean, maize (corn), rice, cotton, oilseed rape, tomato, potato and cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and oat..
[1.1.37.120] Plants which are tolerant to stress conditions (see e.g. WO 2000/04173, WO 2007/131699, CA 2521729 and US 2008/0229448) are plants, which show increased tolerance to abiotic stress conditions such as drought, high salinity, high light intensities, high UV irradiation, chemical pollution (such as high heavy metal concentration), low or high temperatures, limitied supply of nutrients (i.e. nitrogen, phosphorous) and population stress. Preferably, transgenic plants with resistance to stress condi- tions, are selected from rice, corn, soybean, sugarcane, alfalfa, wheat, tomato, potato, barley, rapeseed, beans, oats, sorghum and cotton with tolerance to drought (see e.g. WO 2005/048693, WO 2008/002480 and WO 2007/030001 ); corn, soybean, wheat, cotton, rice, rapeseed and alfalfa with tolerance to low temperatures (see e.g. US 4731499 and WO 2007/112122); rice, cotton, potato, soybean, wheat, barley, rye, sor- ghum, alfalfa, grape, tomato, sunflower and tobacco with tolerance to high salinity (see e.g. US 7256326, US 7034139, WO 2001/030990). The methods of producing such transgenic plants are generally known to the person skilled in the art and are described, for example, in the publications mentioned above. Preferably, the plant is selected from soybean, maize (corn), rice, cotton, sugarcane, alfalfa, sugar beet, potato, oilseed rape, tomatoes and cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and oat, most preferably from soybean, maize (corn), rice, cotton, oilseed rape, tomato, potato, sugarcane and cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and oat.
[1.1.37.121] Altered maturation properties, are for example delayed ripening, delayed softening and early maturity. Preferably, transgenic plants with modified maturation properties, are, selected from tomato, melon, raspberry, strawberry, muskmelon, pepper and papaya with delayed ripening (see e.g. US 5767376, US 7084321 , US 61 07548, US 5981 831 , WO 1 995035387, US 5952546, U S 551 2466, WO 1997001952, WO 1992/008798, Plant Cell. 1989, 53-63. Plant Molecular Biology, 50, 2002). The methods of producing such transgenic plants are generally known to the person skilled in the art and are described, for example, in the publications mentioned above. Preferably, the plant is selected from fruits, such as tomato, vine, melon, papaya, banana, pepper, raspberry and strawberry; stone fruits, such as cherry, apricot and peach; pome fruits, such as apple and pear; and citrus fruits, such as citron, lime, orange, pomelo, grapefruit, and mandarinτ more preferably from tomato, vine, apple, banana, orange and strawberry, most preferably tomatoes.

Methods for applying or treating agrochemical compounds and compositions thereof, respectively, on to plant propagation material, especially seeds, are known in the art, and include dressing, coating, pelleting, dusting, soaking and in-furrow application methods of the propagation material. In a preferred embodiment, the compounds or the compositions thereof, respectively, are applied on to the plant propagation material by a method such that germination is not induced, e. g. by seed dressing, pelleting, coating and dusting. [1.1.37.620] In a preferred embodiment, a suspension-type (FS) composition is used for seed treatment. Typcially, a FS composition may comprise 1-800 g/l of active substance, 1-200 g/l Surfactant, 0 to 200 g/l antifreezing agent, 0 to 400 g/l of binder, 0 to 200 g/l of a pigment and up to 1 liter of a solvent, preferably water. [1.1.37.621] The CA fungicides according to the present invention can be used as such or in the form of their compositions, e. g. in the form of directly sprayable solutions, powders, suspensions, dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions, pastes, dustable products, materials for spreading, or granules, by means of spraying, atomizing, dusting, spreading, brushing, immersing or pouring. The application forms depend entirely on the intended purposes; it is intended to ensure in each case the finest possible distribution of the active substances according to the invention.
[1.1.37.622] Aqueous application forms can be prepared from emulsion concentrates, pastes or wettable powders (sprayable powders, oil dispersions) by adding water. To prepare emulsions, pastes or oil dispersions, the substances, as such or dissolved in an oil or solvent, can be homogenized in water by means of a wetter, tackifier, dispers- ant or emulsifier. Alternatively, it is possible to prepare concentrates composed of active substance, wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier and, if appropriate, solvent or oil, and such concentrates are suitable for dilution with water. [1.1.37.623] The active substance concentrations in the ready-to-use preparations can be varied within relatively wide ranges. In general, they are from 0.0001 to 10%, preferably from 0.001 to 1 % by weight of active substance.
[1 .1 .37.624] The active substances may also be used successfully in the ultra-low- volume process (ULV), it being possible to apply compositions comprising over 95% by weight of active substance, or even to apply the active substance without additives.
[1 .1.37.625] The amounts of active substances applied are, depending on the kind of effect desired, from 0.001 to 2 kg per ha, preferably from 0.005 to 2 kg per ha, more preferably from 0.05 to 0.9 kg per ha, in particular from 0.1 to 0.75 kg per ha. [1.1.37.626] In treatment of plant propagation materials such as seeds, e. g. by dusting, coating or drenching seed, amounts of active substance of from 0.1 to 1000 g, preferably from 1 to 1000 g, more preferably from 1 to 100 g and most preferably from 5 to 100 g, per 100 kilogram of plant propagation material (preferably seed) are generally required.
[1.1.37.627] Various types of oils, wetters, adjuvants, herbicides, bactericides, other fungicides and/or pesticides may be added to the active substances or the compositions comprising them, if appropriate not until immediately prior to use (tank mix). These agents can be admixed with the compositions according to the invention in a weight ratio of 1 :100 to 100:1 , preferably 1 :10 to 10:1.
[1.1.37.628] Adjuvants which can be used are in particular organic modified polysilox- anes such as Break Thru S 240®; alcohol alkoxylates such as Atplus 245®, Atplus MBA 1303®, Plurafac LF 300® and Lutensol ON 30®; EO/PO block polymers, e. g. Pluronic RPE 2035® and Genapol B®; alcohol ethoxylates such as Lutensol XP 80®; and dioctyl sulfosuccinate sodium such as Leophen RA®.
[1.1.37.629] The compositions according to the invention can, in the use form as fungicides, also be present together with other active substances, e. g. with herbicides, insecticides, growth regulators, fungicides or else with fertilizers, as pre-mix or, if appropriate, not until immeadiately prior to use (tank mix).
[1.1 .37.630] In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the inventive mixtures are used for the protection of the plant propagation material, e.g. the seeds and the seedlings' roots and shoots, preferably the seeds.
[1.1.37.631] Seed treatment can be made into the seedbox before planting into the field.
[1.1.37.632] For seed treatment purposes, the weight ration in the binary, ternary and quaternary mixtures of the present invention generally depends from the properties of the CA fungicides according to the present invention.
[1.1.37.633] Compositions, which are especially useful for seed treatment are e.g.:
A Soluble concentrates (SL, LS) D Emulsions (EW, EO, ES) E Suspensions (SC, OD, FS)
F Water-dispersible granules and water-soluble granules (WG, SG) G Water-dispersible powders and water-soluble powders (WP, SP, WS) H Gel-Formulations (GF) I Dustable powders (DP, DS)
[1.1.37.634] These compositions can be applied to plant propagation materials, particularly seeds, diluted or undiluted. These compositions can be applied to plant propagation materials, particularly seeds, diluted or undiluted. The compositions in question give, after two-to-tenfold dilution, active substance concentrations of from 0.01 to 60% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 40% by weight, in the ready-to-use preparations. Application can be carried out before or during sowing. Methods for applying or treating agrochemical compounds and compositions thereof, respectively, on to plant propagation material, especially seeds, are known in the art, and include dressing, coating, pelleting, dusting and soaking application methods of the propagation material (and also in furrow treatment). In a preferred embodiment, the compounds or the compositions thereof, respectively, are applied on to the plant propagation material by a method such that germination is not induced, e. g. by seed dressing, pelleting, coating and dusting. [1.1.37.635] In the treatment of plant propagation material (preferably seed), the application rates of the inventive mixture are generally for the formulated product (which usually comprises from 10 to 750 g/l of the active(s)) .
[1.1.37.636] The invention also relates to the propagation products of plants, and especially the seed comprising, that is, coated with and/or containing, a mixture as defined above or a composition containing the mixture of two or more active ingredients or a mixture of two or more compositions each providing one of the active ingredients. The plant propagation material (preferably seed) comprises the inventive mixtures in an amount of from 0.1 g to 10 kg per 100 kg of plant propagation material (preferably seed).
[1.1.37.637] The process of the present invention uses in one embodiment transgenic plants, parts thereof, cells or organelles.
[1.1 .37.638] For the purposes of the invention, "transgenic", "transgene" or "recombinant" means with regard to, for example, a nucleic acid sequence, an expression cassette, gene construct or a vector comprising the nucleic acid sequence or an organism transformed with the nucleic acid sequences, expression cassettes or vectors, all those constructions brought about by recombinant methods in which either a) the nucleic acid sequences encoding proteins useful in the methods of the invention, or b) genetic control sequence(s) which is operably linked with the nucleic acid sequence according to the invention, for example a promoter, or c) a) and b) are not located in their natural genetic environment or have been modified by recombinant methods, it being possible for the modification to take the form of, for example, a substitution, addition, deletion, inversion or insertion of one or more nucleotide residues. The natural genetic environment is understood as meaning the natural genomic or chromosomal locus in the original plant and can be deduced from the presence in a genomic library. In the case of a genomic library, the natural genetic environment of the nucleic acid sequence is preferably retained, at least in part. The environment flanks the nucleic acid sequence at least on one side and has a sequence length of at least 50 bp, preferably at least 500 bp, especially preferably at least 1000 bp, most prefera- bly at least 5000 bp. A naturally occurring expression cassette - for example the naturally occurring combination of the natural promoter of the nucleic acid sequences with the corresponding nucleic acid sequence - becomes a transgenic expression cassette when this expression cassette is modified by non-natural, synthetic ("artificial") methods such as, for example, mutagenic treatment. Suitable methods are described, for example, in US 5565350 or WO 2000/15815. [1.1.37.639] A transgenic plant for the purposes of the invention is thus understood as meaning, as above, that the nucleic acids are not at their natural locus in the genome of said plant, it being possible for the nucleic acids to be expressed homologously or heterologously. However, as mentioned, transgenic also means that, while the nucleic acids are at their natural position in the genome of a plant, the sequence has been modified with regard to the natural sequence, and/or that the regulatory sequences of the natural sequences have been modified. Transgenic is preferably understood as meaning the expression of the nucleic acids at an unnatural locus in the genome, i.e. homologous or, preferably, heterologous expression of the nucleic acids takes place. Preferred transgenic plants are mentioned herein.
[1.1.37.640] These transgenic plants may be any listed in Table A, such as any of A-1 to A-156. Further, the transgenic plants used in the process of the invention may comprise as transgene any one or several of the genes listed in Table B. [1.1.37.641] However, the present inventive process is not limited to transgenic plants, and not to these transgenic plants. Other transgenic plants suitable for the process of the present invention may be generated by methods known in the art. In the following section exemplary methods to produce transgenic plants suitable fort the process of the present invention are exemplified in a non-limiting fashion. The person skilled in the art is well aware that the methods used to produce the transgenic plants are not critical for the use of such plants in working the present invention.
[1 .1.37.642] The term "introduction" or "transformation" as referred to herein encompasses the transfer of an exogenous polynucleotide into a host cell, irrespective of the method used for transfer. In particular with respect to transgenic plants "transformation" or "transformed" preferably refers to the transfer of an exogenous polynucleotide into a host cell, irrespective of the method used for transfer.
Transformation methods include the use of liposomes, electroporation, chemicals that increase free DNA uptake, injection of the DNA directly into the plant, particle gun bombardment, transformation using viruses or pollen and microprojection. Methods may be selected from the calcium/polyethylene glycol method for protoplasts (Krens, F.A. et al., (1982) Nature 296, 72-74; Negrutiu I et al. (1987) Plant MoI Biol 8: 363-373); electroporation of protoplasts (Shillito R. D. et al. (1985) Bio/Technol 3, 1099-1102); microinjection into plant material (Crossway A et al., (1986) MoI. Gen Genet 202: 179- 185); DNA or RNA-coated particle bombardment (Klein TM et al., (1987) Nature 327: 70) infection with (non-integrative) viruses and the like. Transgenic plants, including transgenic crop plants, are preferably produced via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. [1.1.37.643] For example a suitable vector, e.g. a binary vector can be transformed into a suitable Agrobacterium strain e.g. LBA4044 according to methods well known in the art. Such a transformed Agrobacterium may then be used to transform plant cells, as disclosed in the following examples. [1.1.37.644] Example I: Plant transformation examples
[1.1.37.645] Rice transformation [1.1.37.646] The Agrobacterium containing the expression vector is used to transform Oryza sativa plants. Mature dry seeds of the rice japonica cultivar Nipponbare are de- husked. Sterilization is carried out by incubating for one minute in 70% ethanol, followed by 30 minutes in 0.2% HgCb, followed by a 6 times 15 minutes ish with sterile distilled water. The sterile seeds are then germinated on a medium containing 2,4-D (callus induction medium). After incubation in the dark for four weeks, embryogenic, scutellum-derived calli are excised and propagated on the same medium. After two weeks, the calli are multiplied or propagated by subculture on the same medium for another 2 weeks. Embryogenic callus pieces are sub-cultured on fresh medium 3 days before co-cultivation (to boost cell division activity).
[1.1.37.647] Agrobacterium strain LBA4404 containing the expression vector is used for co-cultivation. Agrobacterium is inoculated on AB medium with the appropriate antibiotics and cultured for 3 days at 28°C. The bacteria are then collected and suspended in liquid co-cultivation medium to a density (ODβoo) of about 1. The suspension is then transferred to a Petri dish and the calli immersed in the suspension for 15 minutes. The callus tissues are then blotted dry on a filter paper and transferred to solidified, co-cultivation medium and incubated for 3 days in the dark at 25°C. Co-cultivated calli are grown on 2,4-D-containing medium for 4 weeks in the dark at 28°C in the presence of a selection agent. During this period, rapidly growing resistant callus is- lands developed. After transfer of this material to a regeneration medium and incubation in the light, the embryogenic potential is released and shoots developed in the next four to five weeks. Shoots are excised from the calli and incubated for 2 to 3 weeks on an auxin-containing medium from which they are transferred to soil. Hardened shoots are grown under high humidity and short days in a greenhouse.
[1.1 .37.648] Approximately 35 independent TO rice transformants are generated for one construct. The primary transformants are transferred from a tissue culture chamber to a greenhouse. After a quantitative PCR analysis to verify copy number of the T-DNA insert, only single copy transgenic plants that exhibit tolerance to the selection agent are kept for harvest of T1 seed. Seeds are then harvested three to five months after transplanting. The method yielded single locus transformants at a rate of over 50 % (Aldemita and Hodges1996, Chan et al. 1993, Hiei et al. 1994).
[1.1.37.649] Approximately 35 independent TO rice transformants are generated. The primary transformants are transferred from a tissue culture chamber to a greenhouse for growing and harvest of T1 seed. Six events, of which the T1 progeny segregated 3:1 for presence/absence of the transgene, are retained. For each of these events, approximately 10 T1 seedlings containing the transgene (hetero- and homo-zygotes) and approximately 10 T1 seedlings lacking the transgene (nullizygotes) are selected by monitoring visual marker expression.
[1.1.37.650] Corn transformation [1 .1.37.651] Transformation of maize {Zea mays) is performed with a modification of the method described by lshida et al. (1996) Nature Biotech 14(6): 745-50. Transformation is genotype-dependent in corn and only specific genotypes are amenable to transformation and regeneration. The inbred line A188 (University of Minnesota) or hybrids with A188 as a parent are good sources of donor material for transformation, but other genotypes can be used successfully as well. Ears are harvested from corn plant approximately 1 1 days after pollination (DAP) when the length of the immature embryo is about 1 to 1.2 mm. Immature embryos are cocultivated with Agrobacterium tumefa- ciens containing the expression vector, and transgenic plants are recovered through organogenesis. Excised embryos are grown on callus induction medium, then maize regeneration medium, containing the selection agent (for example imidazolinone but various selection markers can be used). The Petri plates are incubated in the light at 25 0C for 2-3 weeks, or until shoots develop. The green shoots are transferred from each embryo to maize rooting medium and incubated at 25 0C for 2-3 weeks, until roots develop. The rooted shoots are transplanted to soil in the greenhouse. T1 seeds are pro- duced from plants that exhibit tolerance to the selection agent and that contain a single copy of the T-DNA insert.
[1.1.37.652] Wheat transformation
[1.1.37.653] Transformation of wheat is performed with the method described by lshida et al. (1996) Nature Biotech 14(6): 745-50. The cultivar Bobwhite (available from CIM- MYT, Mexico) is commonly used in transformation. Immature embryos are cocultivated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens containing the expression vector, and transgenic plants are recovered through organogenesis. After incubation with Agrobacterium, the embryos are grown in vitro on callus induction medium, then regeneration medium, containing the selection agent (for example imidazolinone but various selection markers can be used). The Petri plates are incubated in the light at 25 0C for 2-3 weeks, or until shoots develop. The green shoots are transferred from each embryo to rooting medium and incubated at 25 0C for 2-3 weeks, until roots develop. The rooted shoots are transplanted to soil in the greenhouse. T1 seeds are produced from plants that exhibit tolerance to the selection agent and that contain a single copy of the T-DNA insert.
[1.1.37.654] Soybean transformation
[1 .1 .37.655] Soybean is transformed according to a modification of the method de- scribed in the Texas A&M patent US 5,164,310. Several commercial soybean varieties are amenable to transformation by this method. The cultivar Jack (available from the
Illinois Seed foundation) is commonly used for transformation. Soybean seeds are ster- ilised for in vitro sowing. The hypocotyl, the radicle and one cotyledon are excised from seven-day old young seedlings. The epicotyl and the remaining cotyledon are further grown to develop axillary nodes. These axillary nodes are excised and incubated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens containing the expression vector. After the cocultivation treatment, the explants are ished and transferred to selection media. Regenerated shoots are excised and placed on a shoot elongation medium. Shoots no longer than 1 cm are placed on rooting medium until roots develop. The rooted shoots are transplanted to soil in the greenhouse. T1 seeds are produced from plants that exhibit tolerance to the selection agent and that contain a single copy of the T-DNA insert.
[1.1.37.656] Rapeseed/canola transformation
[1 .1.37.657] Cotyledonary petioles and hypocotyls of 5-6 day old young seedling are used as explants for tissue culture and transformed according to Babic et al. (1998, Plant Cell Rep 17: 183-188). The commercial cultivar Westar (Agriculture Canada) is the standard variety used for transformation, but other varieties can also be used. Ca- nola seeds are surface-sterilized for in vitro sowing. The cotyledon petiole explants with the cotyledon attached are excised from the in vitro seedlings, and inoculated with Agrobacterium (containing the expression vector) by dipping the cut end of the petiole explant into the bacterial suspension. The explants are then cultured for 2 days on MSBAP-3 medium containing 3 mg/l BAP, 3 % sucrose, 0.7 % Phytagar at 23 0C, 16 hr light. After two days of co-cultivation with Agrobacterium, the petiole explants are transferred to MSBAP-3 medium containing 3 mg/l BAP, cefotaxime, carbenicillin, or ti- mentin (300 mg/l) for 7 days, and then cultured on MSBAP-3 medium with cefotaxime, carbenicillin, or timentin and selection agent until shoot regeneration. When the shoots are 5 - 10 mm in length, they are cut and transferred to shoot elongation medium (MSBAP-0.5, containing 0.5 mg/l BAP). Shoots of about 2 cm in length are transferred to the rooting medium (MSO) for root induction. The rooted shoots are transplanted to soil in the greenhouse. T1 seeds are produced from plants that exhibit tolerance to the selection agent and that contain a single copy of the T-DNA insert.
[1.1.37.658] Alfalfa transformation
[1.1.37.659] A regenerating clone of alfalfa {Medicago sativa) is transformed using the method of (McKersie et al., 1999 Plant Physiol 1 19: 839-847). Regeneration and transformation of alfalfa is genotype dependent and therefore a regenerating plant is re- quired. Methods to obtain regenerating plants have been described. For example, these can be selected from the cultivar Rangelander (Agriculture Canada) or any other commercial alfalfa variety as described by Brown DCW and A Atanassov (1985. Plant Cell Tissue Organ Culture 4: 1 11-112). Alternatively, the RA3 variety (University of Wisconsin) has been selected for use in tissue culture (Walker et al., 1978 Am J Bot 65:654-659). Petiole explants are cocultivated with an overnight culture of Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58C1 pMP90 (McKersie et al., 1999 Plant Physiol 1 19: 839-847) or LBA4404 containing the expression vector. The explants are cocultivated for 3 d in the dark on SH induction medium containing 288 mg/ L Pro, 53 mg/ L thioproline, 4.35 g/ L K2SO4, and 100 μm acetosyringinone. The explants are ished in half-strength Mura- shige-Skoog medium (Murashige and Skoog, 1962) and plated on the same SH induction medium without acetosyringinone but with a suitable selection agent and suitable antibiotic to inhibit Agrobacterium growth. After several weeks, somatic embryos are transferred to BOi2Y development medium containing no growth regulators, no antibiotics, and 50 g/ L sucrose. Somatic embryos are subsequently germinated on half- strength Murashige-Skoog medium. Rooted seedlings are transplanted into pots and grown in a greenhouse. T1 seeds are produced from plants that exhibit tolerance to the selection agent and that contain a single copy of the T-DNA insert.
[1.1.37.660] Cotton transformation
[1.1.37.661] Cotton is transformed using Agrobacterium tumefaciens according to the method described in US 5,159,135. Cotton seeds are surface sterilised in 3% sodium hypochlorite solution during 20 minutes and ished in distilled water with 500 μg/ml cefotaxime. The seeds are then transferred to SH-medium with 50μg/ml benomyl for germination. Hypocotyls of 4 to 6 days old seedlings are removed, cut into 0.5 cm pieces and are placed on 0.8% agar. An Agrobacterium suspension (approx. 108 cells per ml, diluted from an overnight culture transformed with the gene of interest and suitable se- lection markers) is used for inoculation of the hypocotyl explants. After 3 days at room temperature and lighting, the tissues are transferred to a solid medium (1.6 g/l Gelrite) with Murashige and Skoog salts with B5 vitamins (Gamborg et al., Exp. Cell Res. 50:151-158 (1968)), 0.1 mg/l 2,4-D, 0.1 mg/l 6-furfurylaminopurine and 750 μg/ml MgCL2, and with 50 to 100 μg/ml cefotaxime and 400-500 μg/ml carbenicillin to kill re- sidual bacteria. Individual cell lines are isolated after two to three months (with subcultures every four to six weeks) and are further cultivated on selective medium for tissue amplification (300C, 16 hr photoperiod). Transformed tissues are subsequently further cultivated on non-selective medium during 2 to 3 months to give rise to somatic embryos. Healthy looking embryos of at least 4 mm length are transferred to tubes with SH medium in fine vermiculite, supplemented with 0.1 mg/l indole acetic acid, 6 fur- furylaminopurine and gibberellic acid. The embryos are cultivated at 300C with a photoperiod of 16 hrs, and plantlets at the 2 to 3 leaf stage are transferred to pots with vermiculite and nutrients. The plants are hardened and subsequently moved to the greenhouse for further cultivation.
[1.1.37.662] Arabidopsis Plant Transformation
[1.1.37.663] Approximately 30-60 ng of prepared vector and a defined amount of prepared amplificate are mixed and hybridized at 65°C for 15 minutes followed by 37°C 0,1 °C/1 seconds, followed by 37°C 10 minutes, followed by 0,1 °C/1 seconds, then 4-10 0C.
[1 .1.37.664] The ligated constructs are transformed in the same reaction vessel by addition of competent E. coli cells (strain DHδalpha) and incubation for 20 minutes at 1 °C followed by a heat shock for 90 seconds at 42°C and cooling to 1-4°C. Then, complete medium (SOC) is added and the mixture is incubated for 45 minutes at 37°C. The entire mixture is subsequently plated onto an agar plate with 0.05 mg/ml kanamycine and incubated overnight at 37°C. [1.1.37.665] The outcome of the cloning step is verified by amplification with the aid of primers which bind upstream and downstream of the integration site, thus allowing the amplification of the insertion. The amplifications are carried out as described in the protocol of Taq DNA polymerase (Gibco-BRL).
[1.1.37.666] The amplification cycles are as follows:
[1.1.37.667] 1 cycle of 1-5 minutes at 94°C, followed by 35 cycles of in each case 15- 60 seconds at 94°C, 15-60 seconds at 50-660C and 5-15 minutes at 72°C, followed by 1 cycle of 10 minutes at 72°C, then 4-16°C.
[1 .1 .37.668] Several colonies are checked, but only one colony for which a PCR product of the expected size is detected is used in the following steps.
[1.1.37.669] A portion of this positive colony is transferred into a reaction vessel filled with complete medium (LB) supplemented with kanamycin and incubated overnight at 37°C.
[1.1.37.670] The plasmid preparation is carried out as specified in the Qiaprep or Nu- cleoSpin Multi-96 Plus standard protocol (Qiagen or Macherey-Nagel).
[1.1.37.671] Generation of transgenic plants [1.1.37.672] 1-5 ng of the plasmid DNA isolated is transformed by electroporation or transformation into competent cells of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, of strain GV 3101 pMP90 (Koncz and Schell, MoI. Gen. Gent. 204, 383 (1986)). Thereafter, complete medium (YEP) is added and the mixture is transferred into a fresh reaction vessel for 3 hours at 28°C. Thereafter, all of the reaction mixture is plated onto YEP agar plates supplemented with the respective antibiotics, e.g. rifampicine (0.1 mg/ml), gentamy- cine (0.025 mg/ml and kanamycine (0.05 mg/ml) and incubated for 48 hours at 28°C.
[1.1.37.673] The agrobacteria that contains the plasmid construct are then used for the transformation of plants.
[1.1.37.674] A colony is picked from the agar plate with the aid of a pipette tip and taken up in 3 ml of liquid TB medium, which also contained suitable antibiotics as described above. The preculture is grown for 48 hours at 28°C and 120 rpm. [1.1.37.675] 400 ml of LB medium containing the same antibiotics as above are used for the main culture. The preculture is transferred into the main culture. It is grown for 18 hours at 28°C and 120 rpm. After centrifugation at 4 000 rpm, the pellet is resus- pended in infiltration medium (MS medium, 10% sucrose).
[1.1.37.676] In order to grow the plants for the transformation, dishes (Piki Saat 80, green, provided with a screen bottom, 30 x 20 x 4.5 cm, from Wiesauplast, Kunststofftechnik, Germany) are half-filled with a GS 90 substrate (standard soil, Werkverband E.V., Germany). The dishes are watered overnight with 0.05% Proplant solution (Chimac-Apriphar, Belgium). Arabidopsis thaliana C24 seeds (Nottingham Arabidopsis Stock Centre, UK; NASC Stock N906) are scattered over the dish, approximately 1 000 seeds per dish. The dishes are covered with a hood and placed in the stratification facility (8 h, 1 10 μmol/m2s1 , 22°C; 16 h, dark, 6°C). After 5 days, the dishes are placed into the short-day controlled environment chamber (8 h, 130 μmol/m2s1 , 22°C; 16 h, dark, 200C), where they remained for approximately 10 days until the first true leaves had formed.
[1.1 .37.677] The seedlings are transferred into pots containing the same substrate (Teku pots, 7 cm, LC series, manufactured by Poppelmann GmbH & Co, Germany). Five plants are pricked out into each pot. The pots are then returned into the short- day controlled environment chamber for the plant to continue growing.
[1.1.37.678] After 10 days, the plants are transferred into the greenhouse cabinet (supplementary illumination, 16 h, 340 μE/m2s, 22°C; 8 h, dark, 200C), where they are allowed to grow for further 17 days.
[1.1.37.679] For the transformation, 6-week-old Arabidopsis plants, which had just started flowering are immersed for 10 seconds into the above-described agrobacte- rial suspension which had previously been treated with 10 μl Silwett L77 (Crompton S. A., Osi Specialties, Switzerland). The method in question is described by Clough J.C. and Bent A.F. (Plant J. 16, 735 (1998)).
[1.1.37.680] The plants are subsequently placed for 18 hours into a humid chamber. Thereafter, the pots are returned to the greenhouse for the plants to continue growing. The plants remained in the greenhouse for another 10 weeks until the seeds are ready for harvesting. [1.1.37.681] Depending on the resistance marker used for the selection of the transformed plants the harvested seeds are planted in the greenhouse and subjected to a spray selection or else first sterilized and then grown on agar plates supplemented with the respective selection agent. Since the vector contained the bar gene as the resistance marker, plantlets are sprayed four times at an interval of 2 to 3 days with 0.02 % BASTA® and transformed plants are allowed to set seeds.
[1.1.37.682] The seeds of the transgenic A. thaliana plants are stored in the freezer (at -200C).
[1.1.37.683] Example II: Application of a CA fungicide selected from the group consisting of metiram, mancozeb, thiophanate methyl, thiram, cymoxanil, ferbam, maneb, cy- flufenamid, diethofencarb, fenoxanil, tecloftalam, flumetover, carpropamid, diclocymet, iodocarb, pencycuron, propamocarb, propamocarb hydrochloride, propineb, prothio- carb, silthiofam, zineb and ziram.
[1.1.37.684] II.A Seed Treatments
[1.1.37.685] Control and cultivated corn seeds of the T2 generation are treated with deionized water (Blank), 10 grams to 200 grams of a CA fungicide compound; all for- mulation rates are grams /100 kg seed. Every formulation is applied to approximately 80 seeds. The formulation is pipetted into a 125 ml flask along the sides and bottom of the flask before adding the seeds and shaking the flask for 30 seconds. The coated seeds are then removed from the flask and placed in a plastic dish for drying.
[1.1.37.686] Seventy-five 3-L pots per treatment are filled with potting media, labeled with colored stakes, and given a unique barcode. One seed per pot is planted at a depth of approximately 2 cm and covered with media. The media is lightly watered to imbibe the seeds, while allowing for ample oxygen exchange and so that the chemical coatings on the seeds remained intact. After planting, the pots are randomly distributed into three replicate blocks (1 bench = 1 block), each with 25 plants of every treatment. [1.1.37.687] The plants are maintained in a greenhouse under optimal, well-watered conditions (80-90% field capacity) upon emergence. Supplemental nutrients are administered every third day during watering. The greenhouse temperature is maintained at 300C, relative humidity at 75%, and light at 350 μmol nτ2s-1, in a 15-hour day / 9-hour night photoperiod. Supplemental lighting is provided using metal-halide lights. Once per week, the pots are randomly mixed within each block.
[1.1.37.688] On day 21 , the plants are imaged to collect the phenotypic data as described in the WO2008/129060.
[1.1.37.689] II. B Plant Treatments [1.1.37.690] The cultivation of plants, their treatment with fungicides and the evaluation of the fungicidal activity is known for experts in the field. The treatment of plants with carboxylic amide fungicides and the determination of infection after treatment is described for example in GB 84021 1 , US 3248400, DE 1085709, US 3379610, US 2974156, DE 1930540, DE 2932920, US 1972961 , EP 538231 US 3957847, US 2504404, US 2710822, US 1972961 , WO 199619442, EP 00341475, DE 1567169, DE 1643040 and GB 00935981.
[1.1.37.691] III. Evaluation
[1.1.37.692] 111. A Evaluation procedure of rice plants subject to the process of the present invention
[1.1.37.693] 1 Evaluation setup
[1.1.37.694] The cultivated plants and the corresponding controls are grown side-by- side at random positions. Greenhouse conditions are of shorts days (12 hours light), 28°C in the light and 22°C in the dark, and a relative humidity of 70%. Plants grown under non-stress conditions are watered at regular intervals to ensure that water and nutrients are not limiting and to satisfy plant needs to complete growth and development.
[1.1.37.695] From the stage of sowing until the stage of maturity the plants are passed several times through a digital imaging cabinet. At each time point digital images (2048x1536 pixels, 16 million colours) are taken of each plant from at least 6 different angles.
[1.1.37.696] 2 Statistical analysis: F test
[1.1.37.697] A two factor ANOVA (analysis of variants) is used as a statistical model for the overall evaluation of plant phenotypic characteristics. An F test is carried out on all the parameters measured of all the plants of all the. The threshold for significance for a true global gene effect is set at a 5% probability level for the F test.
[1.1.37.698] 3 Parameters measured
[1.1.37.699] Biomass-related parameter measurement
[1.1.37.700] From the stage of sowing until the stage of maturity the plants are passed several times through a digital imaging cabinet. At each time point digital images (2048x1536 pixels, 16 million colours) are taken of each plant from at least 6 different angles.
[1.1.37.701] The plant aboveground area (or leafy biomass) is determined by counting the total number of pixels on the digital images from aboveground plant parts discriminated from the background. This value is averaged for the pictures taken on the same time point from the different angles and is converted to a physical surface value expressed in square mm by calibration. Experiments show that the aboveground plant area measured this way correlates with the biomass of plant parts above ground. The above ground area is the area measured at the time point at which the plant had reached its maximal leafy biomass. The early vigour is the plant (seedling) above- ground area three weeks post-germination. Increase in root biomass is expressed as an increase in total root biomass (measured as maximum biomass of roots observed during the lifespan of a plant); or as an increase in the root/shoot index (measured as the ratio between root mass and shoot mass in the period of active growth of root and shoot).
[1 .1.37.702] Early vigour is determined by counting the total number of pixels from aboveground plant parts discriminated from the background. This value is averaged for the pictures taken on the same time point from different angles and is converted to a physical surface value expressed in square mm by calibration.
[1.1.37.703] Seed-related parameter measurements
[1.1.37.704] The mature primary panicles are harvested, counted, bagged, barcode- labelled and then dried for three days in an oven at 37°C. The panicles are then threshed and all the seeds are collected and counted. The filled husks are separated from the empty ones using an air-blowing device. The empty husks are discarded and the remaining fraction is counted again. The filled husks are weighed on an analytical balance. The number of filled seeds is determined by counting the number of filled husks that remained after the separation step. The total seed yield is measured by weighing all filled husks harvested from a plant. Total seed number per plant is measured by counting the number of husks harvested from a plant. Thousand Kernel Weight (TKW) is extrapolated from the number of filled seeds counted and their total weight. The Harvest Index (HI) in the present invention is defined as the ratio between the total seed yield and the above ground area (mm2), multiplied by a factor 106. The total number of flowers per panicle as defined in the present invention is the ratio between the total number of seeds and the number of mature primary panicles. The seed fill rate as defined in the present invention is the proportion (expressed as a %) of the number of filled seeds over the total number of seeds (or florets).
[1.1.37.705] Example III:B:
[1.1.37.706] Evaluation procedure of Arabidopsis plants subject to the process of the present invention
[1.1.37.707] Plant screening for yield increase under standardised growth conditions [1.1.37.708] In this experiment, a plant screening for yield increase (in this case: bio- mass yield increase) under standardised growth conditions in the absence of substantial abiotic stress can be performed. In a standard experiment soil is prepared as 3.5:1 (v/v) mixture of nutrient rich soil (GS90, Tantau, Wansdorf, Germany) and quarz sand. Alternatively, plants can be sown on nutrient rich soil (GS90, Tantau, Germany). Pots can be filled with soil mixture and placed into trays. Water can be added to the trays to let the soil mixture take up appropriate amount of water for the sowing procedure. The seeds for transgenic A. thaliana plants and their controls for example non-trangenic wild-type can be sown in pots (6cm diameter). Stratification can be established for a period of 3-4 days in the dark at 4°C-5°C. Germination of seeds and growth can be initiated at a growth condition of 200C, and approx. 60% relative humidity, 16h photope- riod and illumination with fluorescent light at approximately 200 μmol/m2s. [1.1.37.709] In case the transgenic seed are not uniformly transgenic a selection step can be performed, e.g. BASTA selection. This can be done at day 10 or day 1 1 (9 or 10 days after sowing) by spraying pots with plantlets from the top. In the standard experiment, a 0.07% (v/v) solution of BASTA concentrate (183 g/l glufosinate-ammonium) in tap water can be sprayed once or, alternatively, a 0.02% (v/v) solution of BASTA can be sprayed three times. The wild-type control plants can be sprayed with tap water only (instead of spraying with BASTA dissolved in tap water) but can be otherwise treated identically.
[1.1.37.710] Plants can be individualized 13-14 days after sowing by removing the surplus of seedlings and leaving one seedling in soil. Transgenic events and control plants can be evenly distributed over the chamber. [1.1.37.71 1] Watering can be carried out every two days after removing the covers in a standard experiment or, alternatively, every day.
[1.1.37.712] Treatment with formulations of active ingredients can be performed as described in this application or by any known method. [1.1 .37.713] For measuring biomass performance, plant fresh weight can be determined at harvest time (24-29 days after sowing) by cutting shoots and weighing them. Plants can be in the stage prior to flowering and prior to growth of inflorescence when harvested. Transgenic plants can be compared to the non-transgenic wild- control plants, which can be harvested at the same day. Significance values for the statistical significance of the biomass changes can be calculated by applying the 'student's' t test (parameters: two-sided, unequal variance).
[1.1.37.714] Two different types of experimental procedures are performed: -Procedure 1 ). Per transgenic construct 3-4 independent transgenic lines (=events) are tested (22-30 plants per construct) and biomass performance can be evaluated as described above.
-Procedure 2.) Up to five lines per transgenic construct can be tested in successive experimental levels (up to 4). Only constructs that displayed positive performance are subjected to the next experimental level. Usually in the first level five plants per construct can be tested and in the subsequent levels 30-60 plants can be tested. Biomass performance can be evaluated as described above. Data from this type of experiment (Procedure 2) are shown for constructs that displayed increased biomass performance in at least two successive experimental levels.
[1.1.37.715] Biomass production can be measured by weighing plant rosettes. Biomass increase can be calculated as ratio of average weight of transgenic plants compared to average weight of control plants from the same experiment. The mean biomass increase of transgenics can be given (significance value < 0.3 and biomass increase > 5% (ratio > 1.05)). [1.1.37.716] Seed yield can be measured by collecting all seed form a plant and measuring the thousand kernel weight. Various methods are known in the art.
[1.1.37.717] IV. Evaluation procedure for pest control [1.1.37.718] The person skilled in the art is aware of suitable methods of inoculation and assessing infections for different plant species and pathogen types. The following are examples not limiting the present invention.
[1.1.37.719] IV.A. Fungicidal control of rice blast caused by Pyricularia oryzae (Protec-t i v e A c t i o n )
[1.1.37.720] Leaves of pot-grown rice seedlings are sprayed to run-off with an aqueous suspension, containing the concentration of the active ingredient as described above. The plants are allowed to air-dry. At the following day the plants are inoculated with an aqueous spore suspension of Pyricularia oryzae containing 1x106 spores/ml. The test plants are immediately transferred into a humid chamber. After 6 days at 22-24 0C and relative atmospheric humidity closed to 100% the extent of fungal attack on the leaves is visually assessed as % diseased leaf area.
[1.1.37.721] IV.B Evaluating the susceptibility to soybean rust
[1.1.37.722] The soybean rust fungus is a wild isolate from Brazil. [1.1.37.723] The plants are inoculated with P.pachyrhizi .
[1.1.37.724] In order to obtain appropriate spore material for the inoculation, soybean leaves which had been infected with soybean rust 15-20 days ago, are taken 2-3 days before the inoculation and transferred to agar plates (1 % agar in H2O). The leaves are placed with their upper side onto the agar, which allows the fungus to grow through the tissue and to produce very young spores. For the inoculation solution, the spores are knocked off the leaves and are added to a Tween-H2O solution. The counting of spores is performed under a light microscope by means of a Thoma counting chamber. For the inoculation of the plants, the spore suspension is added into a compressed-air operated spray flask and applied uniformly onto the plants or the leaves until the leaf surface is well moisturized. For the microscopy, a density of 10x105 spores / ml is used. The inoculated plants are placed for 24 hours in a greenhouse chamber with an average of 22°C and >90% of air humidity. The inoculated leaves are incubated under the same conditions in a closed Petri dish on 0,5% plant agar. The following cultivation is performed in a chamber with an average of 25°C and 70% of air humidity.
[1.1.37.725] For the evaluation of the pathogen development, the inoculated leaves of plants are stained with aniline blue. [1.1.37.726] The aniline blue staining serves for the detection of fluorescent substances. During the defense reactions in host interactions and non-host interactions, substances such as phenols, callose or lignin accumulate or are produced and are incorporated at the cell wall either locally in papillae or in the whole cell (hypersensitive reaction, HR). Complexes are formed in association with aniline blue, which lead e.g. in the case of callose to yellow fluorescence. The leaf material is transferred to falcon tubes or dishes containing destaining solution Il (ethanol / acetic acid 6/1 ) and is incubated in a water bath at 900C for 10-15 minutes. The destaining solution Il is removed immediately thereafter, and the leaves are ished 2x with water. For the staining, the leaves are incubated for 1 ,5-2 hours in staining solution Il (0.05 % aniline blue = methyl blue, 0.067 M di-potassium hydrogen phosphate) and analyzed by microscopy immediately thereafter.
[1.1.37.727] The different interaction types are evaluated (counted) by microscopy. An Olympus UV microscope BX61 (incident light) and a UV Longpath filter (excitation: 375/15, Beam splitter: 405 LP) are used. After aniline blue staining, the spores appear blue under UV light. The papillae can be recognized beneath the fungal appressorium by a green/yellow staining. The hypersensitive reaction (HR) is characterized by a whole cell fluorescence.
[1.1.37.728] IV.C Evaluating the susceptibility to Phytophthora infestans [1.1.37.729] Phytophthora infestans resistance can be assessed for example in potato. [1.1.37.730] Three different P. infestans isolates are obtained from Plant Research International B.V. (Wageningen, the Netherlands).
[1.1.37.731] Disease assays; detached leaves
[1.1.37.732] For the detached leaf assay, leaves from plants grown for 6 to 12 weeks in the greenhouse are placed in pieces of water-saturated florists foam, approximately 35x4x4 cm, and put in a tray (40 cm width, 60 cm length and 6 cm height) with a perfo- rated bottom. Each leaf is inoculated with two droplets (25 μl each) of sporangiospore solution on the abaxial side. Subsequently, the tray is placed in a plastic bag on top of a tray, in which a water-saturated filter paper is placed, and incubated in a climate room at 170C and a 16h/8h day/night photoperiod with fluorescent light (Philips TLD50W/84HF and OSRAM L58W/21-840). After 6 to 9days, the leaves are evaluated for the development of P. infestans disease symptoms.
[1.1.37.733] Evaluation:
[1.1.37.734] Plants with leaves that clearly showed sporulating lesions 6 to 9 days after inoculation are considered to have a susceptible phenotype, whereas plants with leaves showing no visible symptoms or necrosis at the side of inoculation in the absence of clear sporulation are considered to be resistant. [1.1.37.735] IV.D Evaluating the susceptibility to Peronospora parasitica and Erysiphe cichoracearum
[1.1 .37.736] Control of pathogenic fungi can be measured in Arabidopsis plants, for example by inoculation with the biotrophic fungi Peronospora parasitica or Erysiphe cichoracearum.
[1.1.37.737] a) Peronospora parasitica
[1 .1 .37.738] Plants of 5 to 8 weeks of age are sprayed with a suspension of spores (conidial spores, approximately 106 spores / ml).
[1.1 .37.739] The inoculated plants are covered with a plastic bag and kept overnight moist and dark at 16 in a fridge. After one day the plastic bag is first opened and later, e.g. 6 hours later, removed completly. Six days post inoculation the plants are again put into a plastic bag overnight, this induced sporulation. On the following day the leaves are checked for the occurrence of Konidiophores. The growht of the fungi in- tracellularly results during hte next days to weak chlorosis up to severe necrosis in the leaves. These symptoms are quantified and evaluated for their significance.
[1.1.37.740] b) Erysiphe cichoracearum
[1 .1 .37.741 ] This biotrophic fungus is being cultivated on Arabidopsis plants. To achieve infection, a soft, small brush is used to collect the Konidiophores of infected leaves and transfer these to the leaves of 4 week old plants. Then these plants are incubated for 7 days at 200C. After this time, the new Konidiophores will be visisble and during the next days chlorosis and necrosis will become visible. These symptoms are quantified and evaluated for their significance.

[1.1.38.1] This application claims the priority benefit of application EP 08167090.3, filed 21 October 2008. The entire contents of each of the above-referenced applications is incorporated herein by reference.
[1.1.38.2] The present invention relates to a method of controlling pests and/or increasing the health of a plant as compared to a corresponding control plant by treating the cultivated plant, parts of a plant, seed, or their locus of growth with a multi side mode of action fungicide to the plant with at least one modification, parts of such plants, plant propagation materials, or at their locus of growth, wherein the multi side mode of action fungicides (hereinafter referred to as "MS fungicides" is selected captan, chlorothalonil, dithianon, folpet and guazatine, anilazin, captafol, copper salts (such as basic copper sulfate, bordeaux mixture, copper acetate, copper hydroxide, copper oxychloride), odine, dodine free base, guazatine-acetate, iminoctadine, iminoctadine-triacetate, imi- noctadine-tris(albesilate) and oxin-copper, sulfur and tolylfluan.
[1.1.38.3] For the disclosure of this paragraph see [1.1.37.3] - [1.1.37.7].
[1.1.38.4] Surprisingly, it has now been found that the use of MS fungicides compounds as defined above in cultivated plants displays a synergistic effect between the trait of the cultivated plant and the applied MS fungicide.
[1.1.38.5] Synergistic in the present context means that
a) the use of a MS fungicide as defined above in combination with a cultivated plant exceeds the additive effect, to be expected on the harmful fungi to be controlled and thus extends the range of action of the MS fungicide and of the active principle expressed by the cultivated planζ and/or b) such use results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the MS fungicide, when applied to the non-cultivated plant; and/or c) the MS fungicide induces "side effects" in the cultivated plant which increases plant health, as compared to the respective control plant, additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the fungicidal activity; and/or d) the MS fungicide induces "side effects" additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the fungicidal activity in the control plant which are detrimental to the plant health compared to a control plant which is not treated with said compound. In combination with the cultivated plant these negative side effects are reduced, nullified or converted to an increase of the plant health of the cultivated plant compared to a cultivated plant not treated with said compound. [1.1.38.6] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this context as synergistic fungicidal activity and/or the synergistic increase of plant health.
[1.1.38.7] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one MS fungicide as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically enhanced action against harmful fungi compared to the control rates that are possible with the MS fungicide as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth.
[1.1.38.8] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this context as synergistic fungicidal activity and/or the synergistic increase of plant health.
[1.1.38.9] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one MS fungicides compound as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically en- hanced action against harmful fungi compared to the control rates that are possible with the MS fungicides compound as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth .
[1.1.38.10] Thus, the present invention relates to a method of controlling harmful fungi and/or increasing the health of a cultivated plant by treating a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth with a MS fungicide compound selected from the group consisting of captan, chlorothalonil, dithianon, folpet and guazatine, anilazin, captafol, copper salts (such as basic copper sulfate, bordeaux mixture, copper acetate, copper hydroxide, copper oxychloride), dodine, dodine free base, guazatine-acetate, iminoctadine, iminoctadine-triacetate, iminoctadine- tris(albesilate), oxin-copper, sulfur and tolylfluan.
[1.1.38.11] The MS fungicides are known as fungicides. For instance, the commercially available compounds may be found in The Pesticide Manual, 13th Edition, British Crop Protection Council (2003) among other publications.
[1.1.38.12] For the disclosure of this paragraph see [1.1.37.14].

[1.1.40.1] This application claims the priority benefit of application EP 08167108.3, filed 21 October 2008. The entire contents of each of the above-referenced applications is incorporated herein by reference.
[1.1.40.2] The present invention relates to a method of controlling pests and/or increasing the health of a plant as compared to a corresponding control plant by treating the cultivated plant, parts of a plant, seed, or their locus of growth with a nitrogen heterocy- lus fungicide (hereinafter referred to as "NH fungicide ") to the plant with at least one modification, parts of such plants, plant propagation materials, or at their locus of growth, wherein the NH fungicide is selected from carbendazim, iprodione, pyrimetha- nil, vinclozolin, cyprodinil, fluazinam, fludioxonil, fluopicolide, acibenzolar-S-methyl, be- nomyl, chinomethionat, dazomet, Tebufloquin, fenoxasulfone, debacarb, diclomezine, difenzoquat, difenzoquat-methylsulfate, etridiazole, fenpiclonil, diflumetorim, ferimzone, fluoroimid, flutianil, fuberidazole, isotianil, mepanipyrim, nitrapyrin, piperalin, procymi- done, Probenazole, oxolinic acid, proquinazid, pyrazophos, pyroquilon, Quinoxyfen, thiabendazole, tiadinil, triazoxid, tricyclazole, 5-amino-2-isopropyl-3-oxo-4-ortho-tolyl-2, 3-dihydro-pyrazole-1-carbothioic acid S-allyl ester, 2-{1-[2-(5-methyl-3-trifluoromethyl- pyrazol-1-yl)-acetyl]-piperidin-4-yl}-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl-(1 , 2, 3, 4- tetrahydro-naphthalen-1 -yl)-amide, 2-{1 -[2-(5-Methyl-3-trifluoromethyl-pyrazol-1 -yl)- acetyl]-piperidin-4-yl}-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl-(R)-1 , 2 , 3 , 4-tetrahydro- naphthalen-1-yl-a m i d e , 5-chloro-1-(4, 6-dimethoxy-pyrimidin-2-yl)-2-methyl-1 H- benzoimidazole, 3-[5-(4-chloro-phenyl)-2, 3-dimethyl-isoxazolidin-3-yl]-pyridine and 3-[- (4-methyl-phenyl)-2, 3-dimethyl-isoxazolidin-3-yl]-pyridine.
[1.1.40.3] For the disclosure of this paragraph see [1.1.37.3] - [1.1.37.7].
[1.1.40.4] Surprisingly, it has now been found that the use of NH fungicide compounds as defined above in cultivated plants displays a synergistic effect between the trait of the cultivated plant and the applied NH fungicide.
[1.1.40.5] Synergistic in the present context means that
a) the use of a NH fungicide as defined above in combination with a cultivated plant exceeds the additive effect, to be expected on the harmful fungi to be controlled and thus extends the range of action of the NH fungicide and of the active principle expressed by the cultivated plant5 and/or b) such use results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the NH fungicide, when applied to the non-cultivated plant; and/or c) the NH fungicide induces "side effects" in the cultivated plant which increases plant health, as compared to the respective control plant, additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the fungicidal activity; and/or d) the NH fungicide induces "side effects" additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the fungicidal activity in the control plant which are detrimental to the plant health compared to a control plant which is not treated with said compound. In combination with the cultivated plant these negative side effects are reduced, nullified or converted to an increase of the plant health of the cultivated plant compared to a cultivated plant not treated with said compound.
[1.1.40.6] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this context as synergistic fungicidal activity and/or the synergistic increase of plant health. [1.1.40.7] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one NH fungicide as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically enhanced action against harmful fungi compared to the control rates that are possible with the NH fungicide as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth.
[1.1.40.8] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this context as synergistic fungicidal activity and/or the synergistic increase of plant health.
[1.1.40.9] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one NH fungicide compound as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically enhanced action against harmful fungi compared to the control rates that are possible with the NH fungicide compound as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth .
[1.1.40.10] Thus, the present invention relates to a method of controlling harmful fungi and/or increasing the health of a cultivated plant by treating a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth with a NH fungicide compound selected from the group consisting of carbendazim, iprodione, pyrimethanil, vin- clozolin, cyprodinil, fluazinam, fludioxonil, fluopicolide, acibenzolar-S-methyl, benomyl, chinomethionat, dazomet, Tebufloquin, fenoxasulfone, debacarb, diclomezine, difenzo- quat, difenzoquat-methylsulfate, etridiazole, fenpiclonil, diflumetorim, ferimzone, fluoro- imid, flutianil, fuberidazole, isotianil, mepanipyrim, nitrapyrin, piperalin, procymidone, Probenazole, oxolinic acid, proquinazid, pyrazophos, pyroquilon, Quinoxyfen, thiaben- dazole, tiadinil, triazoxid, tricyclazole, 5-amino-2-isopropyl-3-oxo-4-ortho-tolyl-2 , 3- dihydro-pyrazole-1-carbothioic acid S-allyl ester, 2-{1-[2-(5-methyl-3-trifluoromethyl- pyrazol-1-yl)-acetyl]-piperidin-4-yl}-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl-(1 , 2, 3, 4- tetrahydro-naphthalen-1 -yl)-amide, 2-{1 -[2-(5-Methyl-3-trifluoromethyl-pyrazol-1 -yl)- acetyl]-piperidin-4-yl}-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl-(R)-1 , 2, 3, 4-tetrahydro- naphthalen-1-yl-amide, 5-chloro-1-(4, 6-dimethoxy-pyrimidin-2-yl)-2-methyl-1 H- benzoimidazole, 3-[5-(4-chloro-phenyl)-2, 3-dimethyl-isoxazolidin-3-yl]-pyτidine and 3-[- (4-methyl-phenyl)-2, 3-dimethyl-isoxazolidin-3-yl]-pyτidine.

[1.1.43.1] This application claims the priority benefit of application EP 08167156.2- 2103, filed 21 October 2008. The entire contents of each of the above-referenced applications is incorporated herein by reference.
[1.1.43.2] The present invention relates to a method of controlling pests and/or increasing the health of a plant as compared to a corresponding control plant by treating the cultivated plant, parts of a plant, seed, or their locus of growth with a phenyl fungicide (hereinafter referred to as "PH fungicide") to the plant with at least one modification, parts of such plants, plant propagation materials, or at their locus of growth, wherein the PH fungicide is selected from metrafenone, tolclofos-methyl, N'-(4-(4-chloro-3- trifluoromethyl-phenoxy)-2,5-dimethyl-phenyl)-N-ethyl-N-methyl formamidine, N'-(4-(4- fluoro-3-trifluoromethyl-phenoxy)-2,5-dimethyl-phenyl)-N-ethyl-N-methyl formamidine, N'-(2-methyl-5-trifluormethyl-4-(3-trimethylsilanyl-propoxy)-phenyl)-N-ethyl-N-methyl fo rm a m i d i n e , N '-(5-difluormethyl-2-methyl-4-(3-trimethylsilanyl-propoxy)-phenyl)-N- ethyl-N-methyl formamidine, binapacryl, biphenyl, chloroneb, dicloran, dinobuton, dino- cap, edifenphos, fentin acetate, fentin chloride, fentin hydroxide, flusulfamide, iproben- fos, methasulfocarb, nitrothal-isopropyl, pentachlorophenol and salts, phthalide, quin- t o z e n e , t e c n a z e n , 2-butoxy-6-iodo-3-propyl-chromen-4-one and N- (cyclopropylmethoxyimino-(6-difluoromethoxy-2,3-difluoro-phenyl)-methyl)-2-phenyl acetamide.
[1.1.43.3] For the disclosure of this paragraph see [1.1.37.3] - [1.1.37.7].
[1.1.43.4] Surprisingly, it has now been found that the use of PH fungicide compounds as defined above in cultivated plants displays a synergistic effect between the trait of the cultivated plant and the applied PH fungicide.
[1.1.43.5] Synergistic in the present context means that
a) the use of a PH fungicide as defined above in combination with a cultivated plant exceeds the additive effect, to be expected on the harmful fungi to be controlled and thus extends the range of action of the PH fungicide and of the active principle expressed by the cultivated planζ and/or b) such use results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the PH fungicide, when applied to the non-cultivated plant; and/or c) the PH fungicide induces "side effects" in the cultivated plant which increases plant health, as compared to the respective control plant, additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the fungicidal activity; and/or d) the PH fungicide induces "side effects" additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the fungicidal activity in the control plant which are detrimental to the plant health compared to a control plant which is not treated with said compound. In combination with the cultivated plant these negative side effects are reduced, nullified or converted to an increase of the plant health of the cultivated plant compared to a cultivated plant not treated with said compound.
[1.1.43.6] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this context as synergistic fungicidal activity and/or the synergistic increase of plant health.
[1.1.43.7] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one PH fungicide as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically enhanced action against harmful fungi compared to the control rates that are possible with the PH fungicide as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth.
[1.1.43.8] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this context as synergistic fungicidal activity and/or the synergistic increase of plant health.
[1.1.43.9] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one PH fungicide compound as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically enhanced action against harmful fungi compared to the control rates that are possible with the PH fungicide compound as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth .
[1.1.43.10] Thus, the present invention relates to a method of controlling harmful fungi and/or increasing the health of a cultivated plant by treating a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth with a PH fungicide compound selected from the group consisting of metrafenone, tolclofos-methyl, N'-(4-(4- chloro-3-trifluoromethyl-phenoxy)-2,5-dimethyl-phenyl)-N-ethyl-N-methyl formamidine, N'-(4-(4-fluoro-3-trifluoromethyl-phenoxy)-2,5-dimethyl-phenyl)-N-ethyl-N-methyl for- mamidine, N'-(2-methyl-5-trifluormethyl-4-(3-trimethylsilanyl-propoxy)-phenyl)-N-ethyl- N-m ethyl form a m i d i ne, N '-(5-difluormethyl-2-methyl-4-(3-trimethylsilanyl-propoxy)- phenyl)-N-ethyl-N-methyl formamidine, binapacryl, biphenyl, chloroneb, dicloran, dino- buton, dinocap, edifenphos, fentin acetate, fentin chloride, fentin hydroxide, flusul- famide, iprobenfos, methasulfocarb, nitrothal-isopropyl, pentachlorophenol and salts, phthalide, quintozene, tecnazen, 2-butoxy-6-iodo-3-propyl-chromen-4-o ne a nd N- (cyclopropylmethoxyimino-(6-difluoromethoxy-2,3-difluoro-phenyl)-methyl)-2-phenyl acetamide.

[1.1.49.7] A problem underlying the present invention is the desire for compositions that improve the health of a plant, a process which is commonly and hereinafter referred to as "plant health". The term plant health comprises various sorts of improvements of plants that are not connected to the control of pests and which do not embrace the reduction of negative consequences of harmful insects. The term "plant health" is to be understood to denote a condition of the plant and/or its products which is determined by several indicators alone or in combination with each other such as yield (e.g. increased biomass and/or increased content of valuable ingredients), plant vigor (e.g. improved plant growth and/or greener leaves ("greening effect"), quality (e.g. improved content or composition of certain ingredients) and tolerance to abiotic and/or biotic stress. The above identified indicators for the health condition of a plant may be interdependent or may result from each other. [1.1.49.8] It was therefore an objective of the present invention to provide a method, which solves the problems as outlined above and which especially reduces the dosage rate and / or promotes the health of a plant.
[1.1 .49.9] Surprisingly, it has now been found that the use of IGR compounds as defined above in cultivated plants displays a synergistic effect between the trait of the cul- tivated plant and the applied IGR compound.
[1.1.49.10] Synergistic in the present context means that
a) the use of a IGR as defined above in combination with a cultivated plant exceeds the additive effect, to be expected on the pest to be controlled and thus extends the range of action of the IGR and of the active principle expressed by the cultivated planζ and/or b) results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the IGR, if applied on the non- cultivated plant. b) such use results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the IGR compound, when applied to the non-cultivated plant; and/or c) the IGR compound induces "side effects" in the cultivated plant which increases plant health, as compared to the respective control plant, additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the insecticidal activity; and/or d) the IGR compound induces "side effects" additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the insecticidal activity in the control plant which are detrimental to the plant health compared to a control plant which is not treated with said compound. In combination with the cultivated plant these negative side effects are reduced, nullified or converted to an increase of the plant health of the cultivated plant compared to a cultivated plant not treated with said compound.
[1.1.49.1 1] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this context as synergistic insecticidal activity and/or the synergistic increase of plant health.
[1 .1 .49.12] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one IGRcom- pound as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically enhanced action against harmful insects compared to the control rates that are possible with the IGR compound as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth.
[1.1.49.13] Thus, the present invention relates to a method of controlling harmful insects and/or increasing the health of a cultivated plant by treating a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth with a IGR com- pound selected from the group consisting of chitin synthesis inhibitors comprising flufenoxuron, lufenuron, novaluron, buprofezin, teflubenzuron, chlorfluazuron, cyramazin, diflubenzuron, flucycloxuron, hexaflumuron, triflumuron, diofenolan, hexythiazox, etoxazole and clofentazine and ecdysone antagonists comprising meth- oxyfenozide, halofenozide, tebufenozide and azadirachtin and various growth regula- tors such as spirodiclofen, spiromesifen, spirotetramat, pyriproxyfen and methoprene, more preferably from flufenoxuron, lufenuron, novaluron, buprofezin, teflubenzuron and methoxyfenozide.

[1.1.52.1] This application claims the priority benefit of application EP 08167211.5, filed 22. October 2008. The entire contents of each of the above-referenced applications is incorporated herein by reference.
[1.1.52.2] The present invention relates to a method for controlling pests or increasing the plant health in cultivated plants as compared to a corresponding control plant by comprising the application of an-acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (hereinafter referred to as "ACE inhibitor") to the cultivated plant, parts of such plants, plant propagation materials, or at their locus of growth, wherein the ACE inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of triazamate, the carbamates aldicarb, carbofuran, carbosulfan, methomyl, alanycarb, bendiocarb, benfuracarb, carbaryl, ethiofencarb, fenoxycarb, furathiocarb, methiocarb, oxamyl, pirimicarb, propoxur and thiodicarb and from the organophos- phates acephate, chlorpyrifos, dimethoate, malathion, methamidophos, profenofos, terbufos, azamethiphos, azinphos-methyl, cadusafos, chlorfenvinphos, diazinon, di- chlorvos, dicrotophos, disulfoton, ethion, fenitrothion, fenthion, isoxathion, methi- dathion, methyl-parathion, mevinphos, monocrotophos, oxydemeton-methyl, parathion, phenthoate, phosalone, phorate, phosmet, phosphamidon, phoxim, pirimiphos-methyl, prothiofos, tebupirimfos, tetrachlorvinphos, triazophos and trichlorfon.
[1.1.52.3] One typical problem arising in the field of pest control lies in the need to reduce the dosage rates of the active ingredient in order to reduce or avoid unfavorable environmental or toxicological effects whilst still allowing effective pest control.
[1.1.52.4] - [1.1.52.8] For the disclosure of these paragraphs see [1.1.49.4] - .[1.1.49.8].
[1.1.52.9] Surprisingly, it has now been found that the use of ACE inhibitor compounds as defined above in cultivated plants displays a synergistic effect between the trait of the cultivated plant and the applied ACE inhibitor.
[1.1.52.10] Synergistic in the present context means that
a) the use of a ACE inhibitor as defined above in combination with a cultivated plant exceeds the additive effect, to be expected on the pest to be controlled and thus extends the range of action of the ACE inhibitor and of the active principle ex- pressed by the cultivated planζ and/or b) results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the ACE inhibitor, if applied on the non-cultivated plant. b) such use results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the ACE inhibitor compound, when applied to the non-cultivated plant; and/or c) the ACE inhibitor compound induces "side effects" in the cultivated plant which increases plant health, as compared to the respective control plant, additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the insecticidal activity; and/or d) the ACE inhibitor compound induces "side effects" additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the insecticidal activity in the control plant which are detrimental to the plant health compared to a control plant which is not treated with said compound. In combination with the cultivated plant these negative side effects are reduced, nullified or converted to an increase of the plant health of the cultivated plant compared to a cultivated plant not treated with said compound.
[1.1.52.1 1] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this context as synergistic insecticidal activity and/or the synergistic increase of plant health.
[1.1.52.12] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one ACEcom- pound as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically enhanced action against harmful insects compared to the control rates that are possible with the ACE compound as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth.
[1.1.52.13] Thus, the present invention relates to a method of controlling harmful insects and/or increasing the health of a cultivated plant by treating a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth with a ACE inhibitor compound selected from the group consisting of triazamate, the carbamates aldicarb, carbofuran, carbosulfan, methomyl, alanycarb, bendiocarb, benfuracarb, car- baryl, ethiofencarb, fenoxycarb, furathiocarb, methiocarb, oxamyl, pirimicarb, propoxur and thiodicarb and from the organophosphates acephate, chlorpyrifos, dimethoate, malathion, methamidophos, profenofos, terbufos, azamethiphos, azinphos-methyl, ca- dusafos, chlorfenvinphos, diazinon, dichlorvos, dicrotophos, disulfoton, ethion, feni- trothion, fenthion, isoxathion, methidathion, methyl-parathion, mevinphos, monocroto- phos, oxydemeton-methyl, parathion, phenthoate, phosalone, phorate, phosmet, phos- phamidon, phoxim, pirimiphos-methyl, prothiofos, tebupirimfos, tetrachlorvinphos, tria- zophos and trichlorfon, more preferably from aldicarb, carbofuran, carbosulfan, methomyl, acephate, chlorpyrifos, dimethoate, malathion, methamidophos, profenofos and terbufos

[1.1.52.834] Control and cultivated corn seeds of the T2 generation are treated with deionized water (Blank), 10 grams to 200 grams of a ACE compound; all formulation rates are grams /100 kg seed. Every formulation is applied to approximately 80 seeds. The formulation is pipetted into a 125 ml flask along the sides and bottom of the flask before adding the seeds and shaking the flask for 30 seconds. The coated seeds are then removed from the flask and placed in a plastic dish for drying.
[1.1.52.835] Seventy-five 3-L pots per treatment are filled with potting media, labeled with colored stakes, and given a unique barcode. One seed per pot is planted at a depth of approximately 2 cm and covered with media. The media is lightly watered to imbibe the seeds, while allowing for ample oxygen exchange and so that the chemical coatings on the seeds remained intact. After planting, the pots are randomly distributed into three replicate blocks (1 bench = 1 block), each with 25 plants of every treatment.
[1.1.52.836] The plants are maintained in a greenhouse under optimal, well-watered conditions (80-90% field capacity) upon emergence. Supplemental nutrients are ad- ministered every third day during watering. The greenhouse temperature is maintained at 300C, relative humidity at 75%, and light at 350 μmol nτ2s"1, in a 15-hour day / 9-hour night photoperiod. Supplemental lighting is provided using metal-halide lights. Once per week, the pots are randomly mixed within each block.
[1 .1.52.837] On day 21 , the plants are imaged to collect the phenotypic data as de- scribed in the WO2008/129060.

[1.1.62.1] This application claims the priority benefit of application EP 08167268.5, filed 22. October 2008. The entire contents of each of the above-referenced applications is incorporated herein by reference.
[1.1.62.2] The present invention relates to a method for increasing the plant health in cultivated plants as compared to a corresponding control plant by comprising the application of an with a selected herbicide (hereinafter referred to as "SE herbicide") to the cultivated plant, parts of such plants, plant propagation materials, or at the locus of growth of the cultivated plant, wherein SE herbicide is selected from the group consist- ing of ethofumesate, diquat, paraquat, diflufenzopyr, cinmethylin, benfuresate, bensu- lidebutylate, cycloate, dimepiperate, EPTC, esprocarb, molinate, orbencarb, pebulate- Flupoxam, DNOC, dinoseb, dinoterb, naptalam, Flamprop-M-methyl /-isopropyl, Difen- zoquat, DSMAmethiozolin, 6-Chloro-3-(2-cyclopropyl-6-methyl-phenoxy)-pyridazin-4-ol, indaziflam, alkyldiaminotriazin , 5-(2,6-Difluoro-benzyloxymethyl)-5-methyl-3-(3-methyl- thiophen-2-yl)-4,5-dihydro-isoxazole and methiozolinfumesate, diquat, paraquat, diflufenzopyr, cinmethylin, benfuresate, bensulide, butylate, cycloate, dimepiperate, EPTC, esprocarb, molinate, orbencarb, pebulate, prosulfocarb, thiobencarb, tiocarbazil, triallate, vernolate, asulam, dichlobenil, chlorthiamid, Isoxaben, Flupoxam, DNOC, dinoseb, dinoterb, naptalam, Flamprop-M-methyl /-isopropyl, Difenzoquat, DSMA, MSMA, bromobutide, flurenol, flurenol-buthyl, chlorflurenol, cumyluron, dymron, methyl-dimuron, etobenzanid, fosamine, indanofan, metam, oxaziclomefone, oleic acid, pelargonic acid , pyri buticarb, methiozol in , 6-Chloro-3-(2-cyclopropyl-6-methyl- phenoxy)-pyridazin-4-ol, indaziflam, alkyldiaminotriazin , 5-(2,6-Difluoro- benzyloxymethyl)-5-methyl-3-(3-methyl-thiophen-2-yl)-4,5-dihydro-isoxazole and me- thiozolin.
[1.1.62.3] A problem underlying the present invention is the desire for compositions that improve the health of a plant, a process which is commonly and hereinafter referred to as "plant health". The term plant health comprises various sorts of improvements of plants that are not connected to the control of pests and which do not embrace the reduction of negative consequences of harmful pests. The term "plant health" is to be understood to denote a condition of the plant and/or its products which is determined by several indicators alone or in combination with each other such as yield (e.g. increased biomass and/or increased content of valuable ingredients), plant vigor (e.g. improved plant growth and/or greener leaves ("greening effect"), quality (e.g. improved content or composition of certain ingredients) and tolerance to abiotic and/or biotic stress. The above identified indicators for the health condition of a plant may be interdependent or may result from each other.
[1.1.62.4] It was therefore an objective of the present invention to provide a method, which solves the problems as outlined above and which especially reduces the dosage rate and / or promotes the health of a plant. [1.1.62.5] Surprisingly, it has now been found that the use of SE herbicide as defined above in cultivated plants displays a synergistic effect between the trait of the cultivated plant and the applied SE herbicide.
[1 .1 .62.6] Synergistic in the present context means that the use of a SE herbicide as defined above results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the SE herbicide, if applied on the non-cultivated plant.
[1.1.62.7] Synergistic in the present context means that
a) the use of a SE herbicide as defined above in combination with a cultivated plant exceeds the additive effect, to be expected on the harmful pest to be controlled and thus extends the range of action of the SE herbicide and of the active principle expressed by the cultivated planζ and/or b) such use results in an increased plant health effect in such cultivated plants compared to the plant health effects that are possible with the SE herbicide, when applied to the non-cultivated plant; and/or c) the SE herbicide induces "side effects" in the cultivated plant which increases plant health, as compared to the respective control plant, additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the herbicidal activity; and/or d) the SE herbicide induces "side effects" additionally to the primary mode of action, meaning the herbicidal activity in the control plant which are detrimental to the plant health compared to a control plant which is not treated with said compound.
In combination with the cultivated plant these negative side effects are reduced, nullified or converted to an increase of the plant health of the cultivated plant compared to a cultivated plant not treated with said compound.
[1.1.62.8] Thus, the term "synergistic", is to be understood in this connection as synergistic plant health effects.
[1.1.62.9] Especially, it has been found that the application of at least one SE herbicide as defined above to cultivated plants leads to a synergistically enhanced action against harmful pests compared to the control rates that are possible with the SE herbicide as defined above in non-cultivated plants and/or leads to an synergistic increase in the health of a plant when applied to a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth. [1.1.62.10] Thus, the present invention relates to a method of controlling harmful pests and/or increasing the health of a cultivated plant by treating a cultivated plant, parts of a plant, plant propagation material, or to their locus of growth with a SE herbicide selected from the group consisting of the group consisting of ethofumesate , diquat, paraquat , diflufenzopyr, cinmethylin, benfuresate, bensulide, butylate, cycloate, dime- piperate, EPTC, esprocarb, molinate, orbencarb, pebulate, prosulfocarb, thiobencarb , tiocarbazil, triallate , vernolate, asulam, Dichlobenil , chlorthiamid, Isoxaben, Flupoxam, DNOC, dinoseb, dinoterb, naptalam, Flamprop-M-methyl /-isopropyl, Difenzoquat, DSMA, MSMA, Bromobutide , flurenol, flurenol-buthyl, chlorflurenol, cumyluron, dym- ron, methyl-dimuron, etobenzanid, fosamine, indanofan, metam, oxaziclomefone, oleic acid, pelargonic acid, pyributicarb, methiozolin, 6-Chloro-3-(2-cyclopropyl-6-methyl- phenoxy)-pyridazin-4-o I , i n d a z i f l a m , a l k y l d i a m i n o t ri a z i n , 5-(2,6-Difluoro- benzyloxymethyl)-5-methyl-3-(3-methyl-thiophen-2-yl)-4,5-dihydro-isoxazole and me- thiozolin, preferably from the group consisting of ethofumesate , diquat, paraquat , diflufenzopyr and cinmethylin.
[1.1.62.1 1] The SE herbicides are known as herbicides. For instance, the commercially available compounds may be found in The Pesticide Manual, 13th Edition, British Crop Protection Council (2003) among other publications. 6-Chloro-3-(2-cyclopropyl-6- methyl-phenoxy)-pyridazin-4-ol is known from WO2003/016286 and WO2006/106906. indaziflam is known from WO2004/069814, WO 2007/140908 and WO2007/104429. 5- (2,6-Difluoro-benzyloxymethyl)-5-methyl-3-(3-methyl-thiophen-2-yl)-4,5-dihydro- isoxazole is known from the Weed Science Society of America Meeting 2008, S.Koo et.al., abstract number 43.
